Saying Yes to Read Live

This year, thanks to the generosity of the Decatur City Church, all of the K-3 elementary schools of City Schools of Decatur got a boost to their reading programs. Each school received a grant from DEF to cover the cost of Read Live, an online program designed specifically to help students improve reading fluency and comprehension. Julie Semones, a teacher at Winnona Park, reported that in a short time, she has seen an increase in reading engagement from her students. She and her students love the immediate feedback the program offers at the end of a session. “YES!” is a word that Julie hears often during her Read Live sessions.
