At Laurel Elementary, two investments come together: a completed schoolyard and a room full of readers.
Through eatlearnplay’s support of ReadingPartners, 48 students at Laurel received one-on-one literacy tutoring this past school year, with 90% meeting or exceeding their reading goals thanks to dedicated volunteers.
laurellions is also one of the 24 schools where Eat. Learn. Play. completed a schoolyard revitalization, including new play structures, multi-sport courts, nature exploration areas, and murals.
rpbayarea volunteer Kim sees the connection when she works with her student: “He comes in sweaty, and ready to learn. The fact that he’s been able to run around and have fun out there means he’s more prepared for the work we do together.”
