The Teays Valley Educational Foundation recently awarded a grant to Teays Valley East Middle School intervention specialist Christine Brown for $4,162.01 to purchase a kit and assessment resource from the LLI reading system and two reading kits from Saddlebrook Educational Publishing. The goal of the grant is to eliminate the gap between the students with disabilities and their typical peers.
“These reading products being purchased are going to benefit so many of our reluctant and struggling readers. They will provide more successful reading growth and hopefully these students will start to find the joy in reading for pleasure,” Brown said.
