Follow on Google News | Holcombe Financial Donates Kindles to Create ‘Digital Den’ at Minor ElementaryHolcombe and students celebrate Read Across America Day with new Kindles, and other fun reading accessories.
By: Holcombe Financial Just in time for Read Across America Day, students at Minor Elementary will be surprised with these new reading tools, and will participate in an all day read-a-thon. “Many students at Minor don't have wealthy parents that can afford these devices. As the world moves into the digital age, these students represent the next generation of business owners, employees, artists, and parents -- they are the future of our country. And once they have these devices in hand, it opens them up to unlimited opportunity,” One of the main reasons for Holcombe’s donations is to support greater equity for Minor’s population of students (a Title 1 school with nearly 90% of students on free and reduced lunch). Minor hopes to increase motivation, and help students meet the Common Core State Standards, which call for greater text complexity and increased close reading experiences. The kindles will help make shared reading experiences possible allowing for in depth collaborative conversations about literacy. To participate in Read Across America Day, contribute to Minor’s reading program, or for additional information, please reach out to the contact above, or visit www.holcombefinancial.com About Holcombe Financial Holcombe Financial delivers a creative financial planning process to clients ready to think differently about their wealth.
