Welcome to Adelphi University's America Reads/America Counts Web site.
America Reads is a national campaign that was initiated in 1997 that challenges every American to help our children learn to read well and independently by the end of elementary school. Nationwide, there are approximately 1200 colleges and universities participating in the America Reads Challenge.
Building on the success of the America Reads Challenge, America Counts was initiated in July 1999. America Counts is an effort to improve student achievement in mathematics, with the goal that all students will master challenging mathematics, including the foundations of algebra and geometry, by the end of the 9th grade. Nationwide, there are approximately 300 colleges and universities participating in America Counts.
Dedicated Adelphi students will provide tutoring to pre-K through middle school at no cost to the participatory districts.
