fiesta for families 2011:
Here is how the Walltham Family School supports
families and the community:
-More than 150 people from 48 families benefit from the Family
Literacy programming at the Waltham Family School. Adults receive
ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) classes, parenting
education, interactive family literacy, home visits, and life skills
training. And are prepared to support their children in school and
become active members of the workforce and the community.
-90% of Waltham Family School children perform at or above grade
level in Waltham Public Schools by the time they reach 2nd grade.
-"A mother's reading skill is the greatest determinant of her
children's future academic success, outweighing other factors, such
as neighborhood and family income." (Demography, National Institute
of Health, October 2010)

A message from executive
director beth toolan:
Fall is here, falling leaves, and, of
course, WPY's annual spelling bee.
This year, the Bee will be held on Thursday, Nov. 1st. November
1is also National Family Literacy Day, a day to celebrate family
literacy programs like the
Waltham
Family School. I encourage
each
of you to read with your children every day. Share stories
from your
own childhood, visit the library, or look at family
photos. We invite you and
your family to celebrate National Family
Literacy Day together!
