SUMMARY:Read Seattle Movement Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Make reading a reality for every child in Seattle. \nThe literacy situation in Seattle Public Schools and surrounding areas is discouraging and historically disappointing. The SPS October 2024 Audit report points out the continuing disparities and low proficiency reading levels for BIPOC and particularly Black Male students. The reports state that only 60% of SPS 3rd graders are reading at the proficiency levels for their grade. The proficiency level is 40% for BIPOC and 28% for Black Males.\n72% of Black Males in the 3rd grade aren’t reading at their grade level. \nWhile these results are shocking\, they aren’t new. The reading proficiency levels for BIPOC and Black male students have been low for decades. It’s time to act and reverse the trend. The future of our kids depends on it. Read Seattle is building a community-driven literacy movement by connecting volunteers with local nonprofits\, making a real difference. We are asking for your support in promoting this community-driven initiative. \nOn Saturday\, March 15th\, at 2 PM\, the Read Seattle Community Coalition will host a literacy awareness and recruiting event at Holgate Church of Christ\, 2600 S. Holgate St. Our goal is to get individuals to sign up to become reading tutors. We will invite the Seattle Mayor\, Seattle City Council\, King County Council\, Seattle School Board Members\, and other officials to this vital community event.\nYour support is needed.\nWe would like you to attend our event on March 15th at 2 PM if you can and are willing. Your presence and support will go a long way in bringing attention to this enormous opportunity. Scan the QR code on the attached flyer or go to https://www.readseattle.org/sentencedfilm\nto register for the event. \nIf you have questions\, please call Lori Walker at 206-399-0165 or Joe Hunter Jr. at 504-621-6524
