Charles J. Shields, guidance coordinator at a high school, argues in a column that one in three local students read below grade level. He cites testing of 550 eighth graders showing grade-equivalent reading around 5th grade and urges parents to foster reading at home. He emphasizes daily reading, high-interest books, and parents reading aloud to children to build skills.
