The Warren City School District on Friday, March 1, 2024, kicked off the new Reading Raiders program with a variety of activities including assemblies and visits from special guests. But the highlight of the day was when each student in attendance received a book.

The Reading Raider Program is designed to get books in the hands of children, supporting and reinforcing the good habits and joy of reading as well as creating a home library for students attending the Warren City Schools.

The program was launched on the heels of the announcement at the end of January that the Warren City School District had reached a major milestone by no longer having any type of adverse federal designation for any building. This is due to academic performance as required for underperforming schools as defined by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).  (Read more on the designations HERE.) 

In celebration of this significant achievement, the Warren City School District announced the Reading Raider Program taking place for students in the month of March.
