We are grateful for YOUR support and all that we’ve been able to achieve through our work together. Much of that work is presented here in the facts and figures, but each number also represents the story of a child we have served. One such child is Ben, a kindergartner at Johnson Elementary who exclaimed to his tutor, “Reading is better than ice cream!” Or the five third graders, once tutored as second graders, who return daily to the ESLC room at St. Paul Music Academy to choose a book they want to read at home…and more importantly, receive the warm greetings of the ESLC staff that reassures them, “You are important, we continue to care about you.” Think of it…daily during the past school year…over 280 St. Paul children in K-3…each receiving one-on-one reading tutoring, having the opportunity to feel success as a reader and becoming life-long learners… all possible because of YOU. Through your investment ESLC provides a simple opportunity for everyone to play a part in the success of these children so the impact can reverberate over the entire St. Paul community for today and into the future. As we begin our 15th year of “unlocking each child’s potential through the foundation of reading” in St. Paul we thank you for your support—for letting us count on you, so more and more children can count on us. Dean Andrew Board Chair Audrey Lindenfelser, SSND Executive Director Unlocking each child’s potential through the foundation of reading. To be a major force in ensuring that all children have the opportunity to read at grade level by 4th grade.
