Investing early prompts optimal child development, healthy brain development, building of strong basic skills, physical, cognitive, social

In Shasta County 58.45% of third graders are below reading level. Early literacy is so important because children who developed strong early literacy skills are more likely to succeed in school and beyond!

Help support early literacy in Shasta County. It’s never too early to talk, read, and sing with your child.
