THE STUDENTS
The program is open to any adult or teenager who happens to lack basic reading or writing skills or who wants to learn English as a Second Language. A student may enter the program at any time. The first step is an assessment and interview with Literacy Program staff to help plan the student’s program. Students are able to work toward their goals, whether that goal is to get a driver’s license, read to their children, or to complete a job application. The Literacy Program provides materials for the student, and supplementary materials are available on loan from the Bradford Co. Library. Students have the opportunity, if they choose, to participate in student support groups. They also receive a bi-monthly newsletter, "New Readers News."
