Cecil is a 2nd grader at Bridgeport Elementary who joined Communities In Schools last October because of some struggles with reading. After working with Cecil alongside his teachers, we have been able to see notable progress in his reading.
He has been moving through the ranks getting closer and closer to being able to confidently read chapter books. Cecil is a very imaginative student who loves to create amazing stories and he is now being able to enjoy reading the stories that others have created.
Cecil came to tell me as quickly as he could that he was making progress one day and was just so excited that he wanted everyone to know about the story he read and how much progress he has made since the beginning of the year.
Being able to see him light up over reading has truly been a delight. Cecil’s favorite days are when his class gets to go the school library because he can get a new book to challenge him and share a whole new story.
