SOAR summer program reports literacy improvements for participating Monroe students
Summary
Program lead Harrison Stanley reported the SOAR summer program at Monroton Elementary had 32 registered students, 25 attendees and an average daily census of about 21; one child’s sight‑word recognition rose from 17 to 27 during the session.
Dr. Harrison Stanley told the board he announced a SOAR summer program several weeks prior and used the meeting to update the community on outcomes from Monroton Elementary. He said the program ran seven weeks, two days per week, with 32 students registered and 25 attending; the average daily census was about 21.
Stanley recounted a parent’s report that one child’s pretest recognized 17 of 46 sight words and by the program’s end recognized 27 and could read a full paragraph. He said most parents asked for the program to be extended but capacity limited that option; program leaders plan to continue work with Monroton students through volunteers during the school year and pursue a larger partnership with the district next year.
Board members thanked Stanley for the report and applauded volunteers, principals and staff who supported the effort.
