After-School Collaborative
About
Low-income children have less access to out-of-school learning experiences, contributing to them falling behind by as much as two months of reading achievement. 1
Read Fort Worth’s After-School Collaborative works with the Fort Worth ISD and local after-school programs to align, implement, and track literacy-based efforts across programs. The goal is to provide students literacy enriching experiences that extend beyond the classroom.
