Kids Read Now 2024 Program

Provo City School District is delighted to participate in the Kids Read Now (KRN) program with The Utah State Board of Education. Kids Read Now is a non-profit organization focused on best practices for reading engagement and growth. As part of SB 127 (2022) Early Literacy Outcomes Improvement, funding has been allocated for a five-year program to get books into the homes of K-3 students attending Title 1 schools in our district. We are excited to be starting year 2 of the program.

Here is how the program works:

  1. A parent letter will be sent out to parents, introducing the program, and giving parents the opportunity of opting out of sharing their data with KRN.
  2. Any parents who opt out of data sharing will be reported to the school Title I Coordinator so that their information is deleted from the CSV file being shared with KRN.
  3. Books will be self-selected by students with help from their teachers in April.
  4. During the summer, the four selected books will be sent to the homes of students.

We are excited to be able to provide this opportunity to so many students in Provo City School District. If you have any questions, please reach out to your school Title I Coordinator.
