Our 2nd Annual Book Up! Summer Reading Program has started!

Once students have read 5 books, they will receive a coupon for one free, small cheese pizza OR a Make Your Own Pizza Kit (Uptown location only) along with a coupon for one free piece of Campfire S'Mores from Picnic and Provisions (across the street from Reginelli's Uptown). Students can receive these coupons by mail, or pick it up at the STAIR office.

This is only for STAIR students and siblings!

After each book read, students will fill out an online form stating the title, author, and a one sentence summary.

Here is the link to the form, with an example of a short summary. Progress will be tracked in the STAIR office.

Please email chloe@stairnola.org if you have any questions or concerns!

“The program gives the child a moment to use their imagination. The intimate environment of the one on one classes offers students a feeling of refuge from the group structured school day. The students read at their pace and don’t feel intimidated or embarrassed when they are unsure.”

STAIR would not be possible without our donors!
Imagine a world where every child has access to the magical realm of books, where their imagination knows no bounds and their thirst for knowledge is quenched. At STAIR, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to embark on this incredible journey.
Every donation, big or small, has the power to transform lives. It empowers children who face various challenges, such as limited access to books due to financial constraints or living in underserved communities. By supporting STAIR, you become a superhero in the life of a child, propelling them towards success and a brighter future.
Together, we can turn the page for children's reading. Your donation matters, for it is the spark that ignites a love for reading and sets children on the path to endless possibilities. Join us on this adventure of empowering children through reading, one donation at a time.
