Read with a Child, sponsored by the Governor's
Commission on Literacy, is a collaborative effort
formulated to encourage families and others to
read with a child for 20 minutes every day.
Research confirms the importance of the "20
Minutes" message as a key tool essential in
building lifelong learners.

Beyond the bake sale

• Hundreds of good ideas, reviews, and resources
  for parents, educators and policy leaders.
• Countless studies demonstrate that students with
  parents actively involved in their education at
  home and school are more likely to have higher
  grades and test scores, enroll in higher-level
  programs and graduate from high school.
