Become a Community Partner
A critical step in accelerating literacy growth in the Garland, Sachse, and Rowlett communities is developing partnerships and collaboration with community organizations and businesses.
How Community Partners can support the Literacy for Life initiative right now:
- Help spread the word about the initiative through their own communications channels
- Provide prizes for the monthly reading campaigns or challenges
- Donate to the Garland ISD Education Foundation’s grants and scholarships for literacy instruction with myON Reader and myON News
- Establish technology grants to purchase tablets and Wi-Fi hotspots for community organizations and the Reading with Rodney mobile library
- Adopt a local school by funding their myON subscription, providing unlimited access to needed digital reading materials
- Participate in Community Read-Alouds through the GISD Family and Community Engagement Department
- Organization members can become Reading Buddies and read aloud with students in GISD
