Bentley's "'No Child Left Behind'/Reading and Writing Project" helps students build a foundation for success. The program identifies students who need additional help with reading and writing skills, and gives them the extra attention they need, ensuring they are not left behind on the academic path to success. The project is also designed to develop a writing workshop for kindergarten through second grade students. This workshop provides students with the equipment, materials, teaching aids and technology to publish their writing. By giving students additional exposure to reading and writing, the program produces skillful writers who have an increased understanding of the writing process and a high comfort level with technology.
