Read the Rainbow - Teen Edition
The first six of our Read the Rainbow book clubs listed below were made possible by a generous SEL in Action grant through Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors and Education First and not only funded a stipend for the authors, but also copies of the books for our high school participants. The book clubs that have followed have been made possible through an HCPSS partnership with CARY.
