Early Warning, a KIDS COUNT special report, found that reading well by 3rd grade impacts the future success of kids. New research confirms these findings and intensifies the urgency around getting kids of color to read proficiently.
26% of poor readers who have lived in poverty fail to graduate high school. 14% of good readers from high-poverty neighborhoods fail to graduate compared to 4% from middle-income neighborhoods.
We hope you'll find value in this report. We’d love to get a little information from you, which we'll use to notify you about relevant new resources.
