    RSVP to join Tarrant County Commissioners in declaring Literacy is priority #1

    Tarrant County needs to hear from us. On February 19, 2025, at 10:00 AM, the Tarrant County Commissioners Court will meet, and this is our opportunity to tell County Commissioners that literacy is our top priority.

    📍 Where:
    Tarrant County Administration Building
    100 East Weatherford Street, 5th Floor
    Fort Worth, TX 76196

    ⏰ When:
    Tuesday, February 19, 2025
    10:00 AM

    We know the facts: As of Spring 2024, only 49% of kids in Tarrant County schools in grades 3-8 are on grade level in reading, and without action, they grow up struggling, locked out of opportunities, more likely to fall into crime, and left without a clear path to success. We need bold leadership to ensure every child gets the support they need to succeed.

    Your presence matters. A strong turnout will send a clear message that literacy must be a priority. Let’s make sure our voices are heard.
