Project Description Country: USA Location: Fort Worth, Texas Total Budget: $1,100 Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy Activity Type: Education: General Summary: Purchase 62 Dictionaries for entire 3rd grade & use remaining funds for 1 RYLA student. Our Club supports Maudrie Walton Elementary with weekly in-person reading mentors for each 3rd grade student. This has been an on-going project for approx. 5 years, in support of FWISD's "100 x 25 Ready To Read, Ready To Lead" initiative (https://www.fwisd.org/100x25). Walton Elementary is located in the Stop Six area serving public housing. Test scores fall far below the state average (22% Reading, 18% Math, 9% Reading, Science 21%).
