Read2Succeed

Program Overview

Orange County Public School's Read2Succeed program engages hundreds of volunteers to provide reading assistance to first- and second-grade students each year. The Read2Succeed team recruits, trains, and matches volunteers with students. Through local and national sponsors, the Foundation provides the much-needed resources. Together, we support teachers and students with a solid long-standing, and results-oriented reading enrichment program.
 
Volunteers tutor first- and second-grader students who are mid- to low-level readers once or twice a week. The overall goal is to improve a student's vocabulary and reading fluency and to pass on a love for reading. This program is available to all participating Orange County district elementary schools.
 
Research shows first and second grades are critical developmental years; when reading becomes fundamental to advanced concepts and skills. Extra support during the social and emotional period in a child’s life, when positive encouragement and confidence are essential to academic achievement, is critical to developing readers as they achieve milestones throughout their reading journey.
 
All it takes is one hour per week to impact a child’s life!
