School is (almost) out for the summer!

By Saundra Williams | Executive Director

Thank you again for choosing to give to RHL's project ensuring vulnerable children in a remote area of Liberia learn to read.

The school year ends this month and we are looking forward to seeing the end of year reading reports. We will send them to you as soon as we receive them from the teachers!

There are several aspects to this program that make it unique.

Two organizations (RHL and Rebuild Africa) are partnering to achieve a shared goal: improve literacy outcomes for children in Kolahun, Liberia
On-going teacher training with daily coaching for teachers (most teachers have little training and may only read at the third grade level)
Adherence to phonics based instruction using culturally relevant reading materials
Accelerated classes for overage students focusing solely on literacy and numeracy

With these interventions, we are providing the highest quality education in the District.

We are planning for the next school year now. We recognize there are so many incredible projects to choose from. Thank you for believing in these children and ensuring they have the skills for a bright future.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you'd like to learn more.

With gratitude,

Saundra
