Rabun County Schools encouraging Words2Reading

Rabun County Public Schools are encouraging parents to sign students up for Words2Reading, which is a web-based literacy resource for families, caregivers, and teachers of children ages birth to eight that was launched by the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement (GOSA).  The website, which is easily accessible on mobile phones, provides resources with easy-to-use learning tips and opportunities.
