Our Priorities and Goals

OUR PRIORITIES

Growing Moore Readers is working is to ensure all children in our community will read at or above grade-level. In 2015, only 64% of Moore County's children were proficient readers at the end of third grade. This has significant and long-term consequences for children in our community and for our future. To ensure all children read at or above grade-level, we are focusing on three priorities that research proves are crucial to child well-being and long term success: school readiness, summer learning, and school attendance.
 

All children will enter kindergarten ready to succeed.

All children will maintain school-year gains during the summer months.

All children will attend school regularly.
