Vita Education Services announces an additional Family Literacy class at Franklin D. Roosevelt Middle School (FDR) in Bristol Township.
Family Literacy is a program to assist English as a Second Language (ESL) parents in gaining the literacy and parenting skills they need to become full partners in the educational development of their young children through family-centered education programming.
Last year, Vita began offering a Family Literacy class at FDR for ESL parents, with at least one child in Kindergarten through Grade 3 in the Bristol Township School District. In addition to this class, a new class is being offered for parents of pre-school age children. The new class is being offered in collaboration with Bristol Township School District through its Striving Readers grant.
Registration for both of these Family Literacy classes will be held at 9:15 a.m. Thurs., Sept. 20 or Fri., Sept 21, in Room A-13 at FDR Middle School, 1001 Veterans Highway, Bristol.
Vita has offered its Family Literacy program in Bucks County since 2000. In addition to the FDR Middle School site, Family Literacy classes are offered at Bensalem Head Start in Bensalem.
