We are focused on Literacy

Our parent organization, UPLIFT – United Peoples’ Learning Initiative for Tomorrow, is literacy-focused! Did you know that teaching a child to read is one of the best gifts that anyone can offer a young person? When someone learns to read, the world has opened up for them! Their knowledge becomes the vehicle through which they explore the world, and since we are laying the foundation for our young leaders, we place literacy at the core of every day within UPLIFT Academy. Our facility is rich with so many books that are accessible to the young reader. We know that from birth, it is essential that children become exposed to books: listening to its recitation, looking at pictures, touching the pages, and interacting with the written text. These practices both at home and school indeed develop a young person, and that is what we instill within our little ones – a love for books and exploration through books!
