Department Contact
Minnesota Reading Corps (MRC) is a program that places members in schools to enhance literacy instruction. MRC focuses on children from age three to grade three.
Some members work with preschoolers and focus on integrating talking, reading, and writing into all activities. Other members tutor children from kindergarten to third grade in literacy. Still others recruit, train and manage community volunteers to expand the capacity of the program.
MRC members and volunteers are trained in research-based, leveled literacy instruction. They are also supported by expert coaches. Members track student progress, and with help from their expert coaches, use this data to inform tutoring strategies for each student.
Reading Corps is a statewide program with over 350 members. Within Northeastern Minnesota members serve within the Duluth Public Schools, Barnum Elementary, Floodwood School, East Central School in Finlayson, and Hinckley Elementary.
