- 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. Your contributions will purchase books to be distributed to students across SPS, so they can add more books to their home libraries. 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 students to support literacy.
- 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.
