"Most of the time, kids are learning to read in preschool through second grade, said Dayton Public School District chief academic officer AKISHA SHEHEE. Older kids are using reading to learn their content, and teachers are using reading to test students’ understanding. Third grade reading and eighth grade math proficiency are considered two key metrics in how likely a student is to graduate." 👉 More: https://lnkd.in/gWaSbc8E

Today, I am overwhelmed with gratitude as I share something that has been a lifelong dream of mine— Laprea Education has officially donated over 206,000 books to the incredible organization Books For Africa. These books will soon be in the hands of thousands of children in Zimbabwe and Kenya, bringing the joy of reading and the power of education to communities that need it most. As a teacher for over 23 years, I have always believed in the transformative power of literacy. When I founded Laprea Education, my dream was to make an even bigger impact, not just in my classroom, but across the world. Today, that dream has come true! Knowing that these books will ignite a love of reading in so many children fills my heart in ways words cannot describe. Every child deserves the opportunity to learn, to dream, and to explore the world through the pages of a book. This donation is just the beginning of what I hope will be a continued effort to spread the gift of reading far and wide. Thank you to everyone who has supported me, my company, and this mission along the way. Together, we are making the world a better place—one book at a time. I want to extend my deepest gratitude to all of our team members at Laprea Education for helping me to achieve this lifelong goal! I couldn't have done it without each and every one of you helping our company grow and creating incredible books and learning resources for teachers and children across the world! ❤️ Anna DiGilio - Founder and CEO of Laprea Education 📚❤️ #BooksForAfrica #LapreaEducation #LiteracyForAll #DreamsFulfilled #BooksChangeLives www.booksforafrica.org

🌟 Honored and Grateful! 🌟 I had the incredible opportunity to be a guest speaker at Harvard University for Dr. Angela Jackson‘s course on Entrepreneurship in Education. It was truly an honor to speak with aspiring entrepreneurs who are passionate about making a meaningful impact in education. At Laprea Education, we are dedicated to transforming the way children learn to read, and it was inspiring to connect with others who share a commitment to driving change in this field. I enjoyed sharing my journey, lessons learned, and insights on navigating the path from concept to impact.
