Welcome to Literacy Partnerships! Thank you for choosing Scholastic as your literacy and community engagement partner. We are thrilled to work with you to bring books to the children who need them most. By distributing books to families, you play a critical role in children's academic success. Here are just a few ways your efforts are making an impact: By bringing just one book into the home, the chances of a child being on track in literacy nearly double. 1 Access to books in the home is one of the strongest predictors of educational achievement. 1, 2 Reading 21 minutes a day outside of school results in higher reading test scores. 3 Let’s work together to build a custom solution that supports a culture of literacy in your community. To get started, explore your member benefits and services in this welcome kit and give our literacy specialists a call.
