Our Purpose Omosaze places struggling elementary students and under-performing schools on a more successful path through quality reading instruction offered outside of traditional school hours. We seek to instill a passion for learning among underperforming students by providing exceptional reading instruction outside of regular school hours. Our goals are to increase the number of students who are passing grade-level reading and vocabulary tests, passing the Georgia Criterion Referenced Competency Test (CRCT) in reading, and participating confidently in school activities. We offer three programs, which take advantage of out-of-school learning times during:
Reading Saturday was established in 2001. Reading Club and Literacy Camp will debut in 2009-2010. We serve students in 1st through 5th grade. Currently, our programs are offered in partnership with seven public schools in the Cobb County/Marietta City School Districts. Partner schools have a high number of low-income students. Omosaze is also exploring partnerships with other after-school and summer education providers in the community to assist a greater number of students.

“Before Reading Saturday, Anthony would get mad when I told him to read a book. Now he loves to read. He reads at night without me telling him to. I also see a big difference in his grades.” - Patricia Merino, Parent of Reading Saturday Student
"I like watching students blossom from shy, inhibited readers to outgoing, fantastic readers." - Amy Buddie, Reading Saturday Volunteer |
