History of Read Like A Champion
The history of Read Like A Champion is a testament to its commitment to empowering struggling readers. Originally established as "The Butterfly Readers" in 2012, this program embarked on a mission to support students in meeting their reading goals and excelling in school. It all began in a single school, where the program's impact became evident.
Over time, "The Butterfly Readers" evolved into "Read Like A Champion," a name that reflects its determination to broaden its reach and assist not only native English speakers but also remedial readers learning English as a second or third language. This transformation signifies the program's dedication to inclusivity and its aspiration to help a wider range of learners unlock the power of reading, enabling them to achieve their educational aspirations.
