Wisconsin 2010 Development Grant Abstract - Investing in Innovation Funds (i3) Description of Project: The Milwaukee Community Literacy Project addresses the fact that the ability to read is critical to a child's future success.
According to the National Research Council, academic success, defined in terms of high school graduation, can be predicted with reasonable accuracy by knowing the student's reading skill at the end of third grade. A student who is not at least modestly skilled in reading by third grade is unlikely to graduate from high school. The program will support 300 struggling readers in kindergarten through third grade at seven Milwaukee Public Schools. It will help them reach proficiency through support in three spheres: school, community and family.
The goal of the Milwaukee Community Literacy Project is to demonstrate an impact on literacy skills for high-needs students by expanding the implementation of and investment in, community literacy. Description of Evaluation: College Scholarships, Cappex Scholarships, Merit Aid Scholarships - Cappex.
