Youth Services recently received a Launching School Readiness grant so that we can offer early literacy education with Playaway Launchpads.
Launchpads are devices that teach early literacy skills to children. Reading Academy Launchpads make it fun and easy for kids to jump in at their current reading level and advance from there. Five reading levels are available. Come check one out today!
The project is supported with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
