Please take a few moments to view.  You can help your child learn to read!  Our presentation provides helpful hints for parents about how you can partner with us to help your children develop as readers at home.  There are links to articles and fun books for you to read with your kids, a cool library of books that are read to you by teachers and other community people and important information about the Read to Succeed law in South Carolina.
