Tremendous gains for @FutureReadyFive! The program has doubled its goal for improving children’s literacy scores, thanks to a combination of important factors. @ColumbusCouncil https://t.co/SpdOWo0GKT

65% of the children under age 5 are NOT prepared for kindergarten.
$2M will help us reach our goal of providing essential literacy interventions to 2,000 kids in Central Ohio.

A recent media story highlights the impact kindergarten readiness has in determining children’s future successes, and how our winter screening results are a testament to the effectiveness of our program. Thanks @IsabelCleary & @nbc4i for the feature!

Only 35% of children in Central Ohio are scoring kindergarten-ready when they enter school. That means that 65% lack the foundational skills needed to succeed. 🤯
Together with @ATT, we're making Ohio's future workforce kindergarten-ready. 🎉

At Future Ready Five, we know that the strength of our mission lies in the leadership behind it—and today, we are thrilled to announce the newest additions to our Board of Directors! 🎉
