The West Virginia Reading Association continually has projects that help spread the love of reading, as well as projects to help eradicate illiteracy in our state. Check out this page to see what we are currently working on. Want to get involved? Contact us.
This Committee sponsors a Parents and Reading Honor Council Recognition program for local chapters. Local Councils hold two parent events per year and receive recognition each year at annual conference in November.
Hold a literature fair at the school and/or county level. Students create a backboard project board based on a set of judging criteria to showcase a book they have read. Students may enter their projects in competition similar to a Science or Social Studies Fair at the school- or county-level.
First place projects may enter a regional fair experience currently held at Glenville State College and Shepherd University.
