Community improvement comes in various ways. One is within our education structure. There are approximately 21 public elementary schools and 17 private - as well as home schoolers - in the area now known as South Fulton County.
Schools from all over the community have approached us in helping to develop a reading program. We have done this with a focus on environmental and community improvement issues.
There are many requests for our help. Please let us know if you would like to volunteer by contacting us at 770-306-0020. It will be as rewarding to you as it is to the students.
The importance of this assistance with reading was recently reiterated to us from a teacher from a neighboring county that told us a student from South Fulton transferred last year to their middle school. This student (middle school) reads only at a second grade level. |
