How the Education Foundation is Empowering Young Readers through the Imagination Library Program
Imagination Library provides free books once a month to each child who lives in the Kutztown Area School District and is enrolled in the program. In a January 2024 article in The Keystone, Kutztown Area School District was featured as one of only 54 local affiliates in Pennsylvania and one of only 3 in Berks County to be a participant in this literacy program that support children from birth to age five. Our district currently has 355 enrolled readers.
