There were audible gasps in the school board chamber on January 28th when our 41 people stood up with our red RISC lanyards in support of making sure that all kids in Henrico county (no matter where they live) have the opportunity to read on grade level. Five RISC members who live in Henrico spoke about our hope for the implementation of a proven curriculum for the 7,729 students that attending schools that are unaccredited in reading in Eastern Henrico! We all left energized!
