TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:   Love To Read, Love To Achieve Reading Program Presentation  

 

REPORT IN BRIEF:     The Town of Davie and Broward County School Board Early Headstart Program have partnered in an annual reading program for the past 4 years. The program is designed to have Head Start fathers/father figures and male employees from the Town of Davie visit the Head Start classes to read a story to the students. Having men as 'reading role models' is of particular importance to boys.  Research has pointed out that one of the contributing factors in boys declining interest in reading is the limited opportunity for them to observe men reading.  Hopefully, fathers and father figures will continue to read to their children as a result of their participation in this activity.  This year's  program ran from March 12, 2007 thru March 23, 2007. The Housing and Community Development Department would like to recognize all the Town volunteers and the Broward County School Board's Early Headstart Program for their participation in this worthwhile program.
