Bill > HR379

This resolution commends ReadSource and Purpose Built Schools of Atlanta for their outstanding work in literacy advancement, recognizing their receipt of the Georgia Reads Community Award. The resolution highlights the organizations' efforts to improve literacy, specifically noting that ReadSource provides targeted literacy support to students at Atlanta Public Schools' Slater Elementary and Price Middle School through specialized remediation sessions with a low specialist-to-student ratio. The Georgia Council on Literacy established the Georgia Reads Community Award to recognize community partnerships that have sustained literacy improvement efforts for at least three years, and ReadSource and Purpose Built Schools of Atlanta have demonstrated significant impact through their collaborative work, including a partnership with The Schenck School. The resolution emphasizes the organizations' meaningful contribution to reading proficiency, which can lead to greater educational and career opportunities, and serves as an inspirational example of community-driven solutions to literacy challenges. The House of Representatives officially congratulates these organizations and directs the House Clerk to provide copies of the resolution to ReadSource and Purpose Built Schools of Atlanta.
