The Dictionary Project

Today's Word of the Day: Attain

New Jersey's Piscataway Rotary Club has been helping local third-graders attain strong reading skills for over twenty years.

Each spring, Rotary members visit district elementary schools to present every third-grade student with a personal dictionary. These Rotarians have built a tradition that has touched millions of lives.

This year's recipients were eager to learn, thumbing through their new books and writing their names on the inside covers to make each dictionary their own.
