- Description:
Springfield Public Schools is hosting a book drive to collect donations to help purchase books to give to students in Title I K-8 schools. Books will be distributed before the holiday break so students will have books to read while home over the holiday. The book drive supports the 2024-2025 Read to Succeed campaign to increase awareness around the importance of reading throughout our community and to help increase English Language Arts scores on MAP tests by 2%. Help us give a book to every student this holiday season!
- Need Represented: This need will help meet needs by providing literacy resources to students who attend Title I schools across the district.
- Academic Impact: Reading opens doors to literacy skills essential for academic and lifelong success. Increasing literacy awareness and focus at home will help us meet our goal to increase ELA MAP testing scores by 2% and students' overall academic performance.
- Student Population: K-8 students attending Title I schools across the district.
