Read-To-Win
D.R. Horton – Schuler Division created its signature Read-to-Win program in 2004 to encourage reading and promote literacy in public schools.
D.R. Horton – Schuler Division created its signature Read-to-Win program in 2004 to encourage reading and promote literacy in public schools. Since its inception, the company has invested more than $132,000 in participating schools including Mauka Lani, Mā‘ili, Barbers Point, ‘Ewa and Makakilo Elementary Schools. Over 1,500 students participate annually.
Each school year, the Read-to-Win requirements are worked into classroom curriculum to complement each school’s respective language arts program and give keiki an additional incentive to read. Students from kindergarten through fifth grade read a set number of books throughout the school year or a targeted number of pages at home each night in order to meet reading goals. As students meet their goals, they “win” money for their school.
Aside from receiving much-needed monetary support, participating schools have found an increasing number of keiki eager to participate in the literacy program each year and a significant number of students progressing to higher reading levels.
Read-to-Win not only fosters a love of books in students, but it gives them the opportunity to actively participate in raising funds to benefit their entire school. D.R. Horton – Schuler Division is proud to sponsor this program which offers keiki a fun and nurturing outlet to contribute to the quality of the classroom. - Awards As part of its commitment to an ongoing “green” initiative, D.R. Horton – Schuler Division has worked to create sustainable homes geared toward caring for the land so future generations can enjoy all it has to offer.
