Classroom Central was excited to attend and support the kickoff of Read Charlotte’s Commit to 80 initiative! 📚 This critical program is focused on increasing the percentage of third graders who finish the school year on reading level increases from 29% to 80% by 2030, a goal that closely aligns with our mission to create equity in the classroom by equipping students and teachers with the tools they need to succeed. By partnering with organizations like Read Charlotte, we’re helping to build a brighter future for our community, one book at a time. 💡 Together, we can create lasting impact through literacy and education! #ReadCharlotte #CommitTo80 #EducationForAll #ClassroomCentral #Literacy

Another school supply drive is in the books! We set a lofty goal for the 9 School Tools Supply Drive and met it by donating 25,000 items to Classroom Central, ensuring that no student goes without the tools they need to be successful. #CraftedCares #9SchoolTools
