Competency #7 Image




This image was found in Google Images by searching for struggling readers.

I selected this image because it shows the importance of reaching at-risk students at an early age. As one can see from the graph, the gap between successful students and struggling students is pretty narrow when the students first start school, but as they go through the grade levels, the gap widens considerably. I am trying to find a way to reach these struggling children through the library.

The image is from Diebels Data System, a company that tracks and measures progress of a student within a school district.
