  Vermont's 2003-2004 Reading First Federal ApplicationClicking this link will open a PDF document. Adobe Reader is required. To download a FREE version of Adobe Reader, click on the yellow Get Acrobat Reader icon toward the bottom of page.
Vermont’s approved Reading First application enabled the state to receive $2.2 million for the first year of a multi-year federal grant to improve early elementary instruction and student achievement in reading. Under the Reading First program, the state could receive a total of more than $14 million over six years to support implementation of comprehensive, high-quality, research-based reading programs to ensure that all kindergarten through grade-three (K-3) students are reading at or above grade level. The state has invested the bulk of funds in competitive subgrants to eligible supervisory unions/districts that demonstrate intense need (as defined by high-poverty and low-student achievement in early reading) and a readiness for change.
