Literacy
Duplin Reads To Succeed
"A CHILD who READS will be an ADULT who THINKS." - Unknown
In Duplin County Schools, we strive for our readers in all grades to:
- Be proficient. They read with ease and at grade level. They understand what they are reading and they understand when to ask for help.
- Read to learn. Their reading skills strengthen their knowledge across subject areas, whether it’s math problems or social studies lessons, or just a curiosity about a subject that’s important to them. Reading is the foundation on which their learning is built.
- Value Reading. They understand how it helps them in every academic area, in every part of their lives, forever. They want to improve their reading because they understand the value and power it brings to their lives, in school and beyond.
We are working together to develop strong literacy skills in ALL of our students to ensure that they are prepared for career, college, and life success.
