This is what we were up to yesterday!

Today we had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Danya Long for "Early Childhood Brain Science: Nurturing Strong Mental Health." It was a thought-provoking session about the science and best practices for addressing and improving the health of all children!

School attendance is so important! It can really make a difference in your child's academic success #readingby3rd

If a child misses more than 10 days of school in both kindergarten and 1st grade, they only have a 17% chance of reading at grade level by third grade. #readingby3rd



We are now taking applications for volunteer tutors for our @hbarnes Reading Academy: After School Tutoring program in Ames and Nevada this school year! Program runs October-April. We have added a third site and day: @BGCStoryCounty on Tuesdays! raising-readers.org/programs/readi…

If a child is chronically absent in both K and 1st, they only have a 17% chance of #readingby3rd, compared to a 64% chance for a child with good attendance both years.

We had an amazing time last night celebrating the end of our @hbarnes Reading Academy: Summer Reading Buddies program! The Buddies recorded 87,338 minutes of summer reading during the program! Wow!!

This event celebrated the end of a summer filled with literacy tutoring. amestrib.com/news/20180727/…
