A Nice Thank You From Students at Brightwood Elementary


A wonderful thank you from the students at Brightwood Elementary in Springfield, Massachusetts. 

Reader to Reader's book donations enable the elementary school to do "Book Your Vacation" book giveaways, which get books into kids' hands so they can read during vacations and summer breaks.

ACT Scores Soar at Wingate High


Reader to Reader’s Navajo Nation Outreach Coordinator, Jeannette Ortega, has been doing an amazing job at Wingate High School in Fort Wingate, New Mexico.

She teaches 6 classes a day focusing on ACT test prep and college readiness.

The results of her hard work are clear, as ACT scores have soared 30 percent since she arrived there two years ago.

The dramatic rise in scores makes more students eligible for college, and makes college more affordable, as more students are eligible for scholarships.
