River Grove Elementary (Title I designated school site), is one of our local partners within our community of Lake Oswego. The U.S. Department of Education describes the Title I program as follows: “schools in which children from low-income families make up at least 40 percent of enrollment are eligible to use Title I funds to operate school wide programs that serve all children in the school in order to raise the achievement of the lowest -achieving students”.
The Principal and teaching staff have compiled a Wishlist of books to help underprivileged students to retain/improve literacy skills during the Covid-19 pandemic and summer break. To access the Registry, go to: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3TRSL2UO9RVPZ?ref_=wl_share to purchase the teacher selected books (books will be donated from Amazon.com and sent directly to the teacher’s home for delivery to the student).
If you have any questions, please contact: Blaise Hammer, River Grove Elementary Counselor at: [email protected].
