Sound like a great program. Thanks for posting this. I've posted it on my blog (giving you your due props.)
this blog has gotten to be way way good - b-boy
True that, but I miss the unpretentious days though...
I don't know if I want more kids learning how to read. If more kids know how to read competently, test scores in the public school system in the area will go up, making it more attractive for a "certain type" of individual to move in and make my rent higher.
