Adopt a Classroom

Adopt a Classroom Literacy Program continues this year, with a non-traditional approach. Companies and local businesses were scheduled to read to kindergarten classrooms in April, as school closures began and a new normal was established.  This month, United Way staff organized the supplies for Adopt a Classroom to be delivered to approximately 650 students at the Wausau School District, Newman Catholic and St. Mary’s Schools. Students will be able to grow a mini garden in a glove with their families while at home. United Way will work with DC Everest, Edgar, Marathon and Mosinee school districts in the fall.
