In unison with our institutional priorities of supporting student success for all students, making education more inclusive and equitable and being community-engaged to solve problems of our region, UWGB's faculty and staff are committing to providing unpaid, flexible hours to read to students in 1st-3rd grade. Volunteers will be supported with a reading mentor prep course (online, self-paced). Through this initiative we can ensure an equitable and enhanced future for the children of our community. Recent statistics have shown a 14% decrease in reading proficiency, with only 27% of Brown County students meeting their 3rd grade proficiency targets. Therefore, it is essential that we act to solve an issue that will affect UWGB's future and the economic capacity of the region.
