"I became pretty close with one of the little girls that attended each week. I have seen SO much improvement in her reading abilities and I am so proud of her. When she sees me around school, she lights up. The few minutes I’ve been able to spend with her every Friday have been invaluable."

What is Partner's Read?

Read Together

Magic happens on Friday mornings. Before the school and work day begin, Partners Read volunteers read with two “developing readers” for a total of 30 minutes. This time together helps boost students’ confidence and enjoyment in reading.

 

Give a Book

Weekly, students pick out one book to read with their mentor, and then they take it home! By the end of the school year, they have twenty new books that they are excited to read outside of school. These books are provided by WakeEd Partnership.

 

Repeat

This is a unique opportunity. Volunteers read with the same students each week for 10 weeks in the Fall and the Spring, forming special one-on-one relationships that bring joy to both students and volunteers.
