My students, at Arvin high school, have big dreams, and I see it as my job to help them develop all of the tools they'll need to go and reach them. My students are no different from many of the students in the state in that they are reading below grade level, and we know as educators how important the link between reading and future success. Anything that we can do to build a reading culture among our students will pay out exponentially in their lives, and have a big impact on our local community. They are capable, and thoughtful and there's not limit to what they will be able to accomplish. Thank you for coming alongside us as we chase and catch our dreams!
