Why Literacy Matters
Literacy as a Civil Right
Literacy unlocks a lifetime of learning and success. At KIPP DC, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to develop strong reading skills, enabling them to fully participate in society. Literacy is foundational, opening doors to academic achievement, economic mobility, and lifelong learning. That’s why we’re centering this year’s campaign around our ambitious goal: ensuring that 100% of KIPP DC readers grow.
