Support the Literacy Programs in the College of Educational Studies. Our literacy efforts include the Literacy Tutoring Program at the Kathleen Muth Reading Center, community-based programs at local schools including after school and summer programs, as well as partnerships with local non-profits in the areas of parent education and support programs. These literacy programs are examples of the important work of CES in the classroom and the community.
The Literacy Tutoring Program teaches reading and writing to approximately 100 culturally and linguistically diverse elementary students each year. This tutoring program also educates undergraduate and graduate student teachers to be effective literacy educators in our public schools. The program also offers a Home Library Program where young readers are given books in their current and next reading levels for their homes. Add your support in Chapman’s quest to provide literacy scholarships and books for kids of all ages.
