Read2Succeed is a program that supports first- and second-graders on their reading journey. Reading volunteers are matched with first- and/or second-grade students at participating OCPS elementary schools to improve their vocabulary, reading fluency, and reading comprehension.

The Read2Succeed First-Grade Vocabulary Enhancement Program helps first-graders build vocabulary and background knowledge. Additionally, volunteers help students develop a curiosity about words and language while giving them the tools they need to be better readers. The program utilizes fiction and non-fiction literature along with journals and art supplies to make learning fun!

Read2Succeed uses a research-based program with second-grade students called The Six-Minute Solution; which quickly builds fluency through interactive, repeated readings of high-interest and instructional procedures which guide students to improved literacy. Volunteers can spend as little as less than one hour,  twice a week, during the school day, developing their students’ ability to read text quickly, accurately, and with expression.
