EARLY LEARNING
A quality Pre-K to second grade program is critical to our students’ educational journey. The Dallas Education Foundation works collaboratively with Dallas ISD’s Early Learning department to ensure our youngest students develop curiosity, gain self-confidence, and secure the foundational elements needed as they embark and continue on their educational journey – specifically in reading development.
“Getting the right resources into the hands of our teachers is critical to our littlest learners being kindergarten-ready and on their way to reading at grade level. We are so thankful to the Dallas Education Foundation and their donor partners for focusing on where education starts in Dallas ISD.”
LITERACY
Working in partnership with the Dallas ISD, the Dallas Education Foundation is committed to advancing literacy by developing innovative mechanisms for students to curate home libraries with culturally relevant and engaging books of their choice. By bringing books into students’ homes, we hope to foster a lifelong love of reading and increase family engagement as parents and students read together.
OUR IMPACT ON EARLY LEARNING & LITERACY
“The Dallas Education Foundation plays a vital role in improving literacy across our district by providing innovative solutions such as curated book packs and book vending machines, which create a reading-friendly environment and use positive reinforcement to build a love of reading in every Dallas ISD student’s home.”
EMPOWER THE FUTURE: SUPPORT EARLY LEARNING & LITERACY
Every student in Dallas deserves the opportunity to develop a love of reading early in life. At the Dallas Education Foundation, we’re committed to breaking down barriers and creating pathways to success for all students.
