Statewide Parent Education and Support Group Meeting

 

 

Georgia’s Federation of Families for Children’s Mental Health

Join us on Tuesday, October 5th at 2 pm EST to hear from

Arianne B. Weldon, MPH, Strategic Innovation Manager & GGR Campaign Director, at our weekly Statewide Parent Education and Support Group meeting. The topic is: Early Literacy—The Great Equalizer.

Children who can’t read proficiently by the end of third grade are more likely to drop out of high school compared to those who can. They’re also more likely to experience poor health and discipline problems. As adults they’re more likely to be unemployed, spend time in prison, and contend with shorter life expectancies. This presentation will provide a brief summary of what we’ve learned and what we need to do next so that all children in Georgia are proficient readers by the end of third grade, paving the way to improved outcomes throughout school and life.

Weldon, MPH, Directora de Innovación Estratégica y Directora de Campaña de GGR, en nuestra reunión semanal del Grupo de Educación y Apoyo para Padres en todo el estado. El tema es: Alfabetización temprana—El Gran Ecualizador.

Los niños que no pueden leer con destreza al final del tercer grado tienen más probabilidades de abandonar la escuela secundaria que los que pueden. También es más probable que experimenten problemas de salud y disciplina deficientes. Como adultos, es más probable que estén desempleados, pasen tiempo en prisión y enfrenten expectativas de vida más cortas. Esta presentación proporcionará un breve resumen de lo que hemos aprendido y lo que tenemos que hacer a continuación para que todos los niños en Georgia sean lectores competentes al final del tercer grado.
