Project Read and Reach


Project Read and Reach (PRR) is an academic before and after school program that was created through the award of a three-year grant to the St. Charles City School District by the Department of Elementary & Secondary Education’s Office of Early and Extended Learning.

Guiding Principle: The programs and services of PRR are guided by one purpose: to provide a safe before and after school learning environment dedicated to providing academic enrichment opportunities that will prepare our students for tomorrow.

Focus of Program: Literacy, Character, Service
The innovative aspect of programming will be the use of the Nook e-Reader as we strive to improve the literacy of students. At the heart of programming will be the intrinsic motivation of students through Character Education concepts. Service-learning projects will provide students the opportunity to reach out to others as they self-direct their learning and development to meet a community or global need. PRR will also provide students the opportunities for homework help, Wellness Wednesdays, Funtastic Fridays, field trips, and many other experiential learning activities.
