Orange County Public Schools to launch districtwide reading initiative

Orange County Public Schools is kicking off Literacy Week Monday, Jan. 27, with a challenge. 

The school district is launching Let's Read, OCPS!, a districtwide initiative to read 20 million minutes by April 30. 

The district hopes the challenge will encourage students to read for enjoyment and develop a lifelong love of reading. 

Students, staff, parents and education partners are encouraged to participate by individually reading at least 500 minutes throughout the challenge.
