Sparking The Joy of Reading
2021 , the pilot reached 45,000 students in 2,200 classrooms across the country , including the students at Molly Stark Elementary in Bennington , Vermont .
At Molly Stark , the program reached over 300 students from kindergarten to 5th grade . Molly Stark Elementary saw firsthand the benefits of increased book access and ownership . The initiative also equipped almost two dozen teachers with the resources needed to inspire their students , providing not only classroom libraries , but also an opportunity for each student to build a personal collection of books at home .
“ Increasing access to books and empowering students is a win for everyone — students , teachers , and families ,” says Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey . “ Our administration is pleased to support the United States of Readers program as part of our ongoing efforts to increase literacy and education in every corner of Massachusetts .”
The United States of Readers program is part of a larger vision to address literacy gaps across the country , particularly in Title I schools and rural areas . The program is currently funded through state monies , as well as contributions from private philanthropists and donors . The goal is to eventually bring the program to every Title I school in Massachusetts , and to expand to other states across the U . S ., ensuring that all students , regardless of their background , have access to books and the opportunity to build their own home libraries .
As the program expands , it ’ s clear that the United States of Readers is poised to make a lasting impact on the lives of students and families in every state .
Who knows ? Perhaps The Green Mountain State will be the next to officially join The United States of Readers . n
