The Chestertown Rotary Club has recently made a district grant that provides the Judy Center with two vocabulary improvement programs, often referred to as VIOLET (Vocabulary Improvement and Oral Language Enrichment Through Stories) instructional programs.
This early childhood curriculum will benefit approximately sixty 3-5 year old pre-kindergarten students that are English language learners and have low expressive language skills at Henry Highland Garnett Elementary in Chestertown, MD.
This is just one of the many ways that the Chestertown Rotary Club has supported literacy efforts in our community. Rotary’s motto is “Service above Self” and it certainly seems like Chestertown Rotary Club is living up to it!
If you are interested in joining the Chestertown Rotary, come to a noon lunch meeting on the 1st through 4th Tuesdays every month at the Fish Whistle.
