More than 80 percent of third graders in Newark district schools cannot read on grade level. At five district schools, just one third grader passed the state reading exam last Spring. At five other schools, just three third graders passed. Large numbers of young people, both those who are enrolled in school and those who have dropped out or graduated, lack the skills that are critical to their future — the ability to read, write, speak, and think well enough to meet the demands of employment, higher learning, and active citizenship.
