Roscoe Village Neighbors Donated $30,000 to Audubon School to Support ARS Reading Program

The Audubon Reading Support Program, or ARS, is an initiative aimed at eliminating achievement gaps between students, decreasing the range of ability that Audubon teachers confront in their classrooms each day, and improving students’ high school readiness skills. The ARS program has shown extraordinary success for students and is meeting all three of its primary goals. The success of the ARS is one of the driving factors behind Audubon’s improving test score performance over the past three years.
