Lit For Life
Governor's Project
This year, the Governor’s Project is called Lit For Life, and it is about making sure every child is given the opportunity to foster proper literacy skills. This project is broken up into three components, the timeline for which is non-binding but can be used for organizational purposes.
To leave legacies of literacy, we need your active involvement!
