The Rotary Club of Boise Centennial has participated in the Rotary dictionary project since we started and we would like to use this grant to continue again this year. We will provide dictionaries to the five 3rd grade classes that we normally do to help the students increase their literacy and introduce them to Rotary. We plan to have these distributed by November 2020. The Funds from the grant will be used to purchase the dictionaries and the Rotarians in the club will distribute them and instruct the students on how to use them.
Addendum to Project Description (added after the project was signed)
This project continues to be delayed by Covid.
We have a commitment from 3 schools.
We changed the order because there was a lack of response form the teachers so far fewer books will be delivered. Here is what changed:
6 cases on ordered (normally its 18-20)
Price is the same as last year: $72.00 per case
Cost: $432.00 vs. last year: $1,440.00
3 3rd grades/schools vs 6 last year
Please let us know if you have questions and if we need to do anything because of the changes.
ADDENDUM: We plan to use the remaining grant funds ($1,008) for broader, similar literacy projects including materials to build little libraries, signage for the libraries, and books to keep them stocked throughout the year.
