The Craig Rotary Club is making reading fun with a program that gives kids a passport to new experiences. As books from multiple genres are read, students’ passports are stamped with a stamp. This would push students to try reading books of all types. This program has been adopted by most of the 4th and 5th grades across the district.

A program now in its eighth year called Passport to Reading is helping kids who might be uninterested or bored of reading find books they would enjoy. The goal is to make reading fun for the fourth and fifth graders who participate in the program.

With the reading passport system, the students, who may have been in a rut reading just one genre, or were bored because they were reading the same type of books they didn’t like, get a chance to read the wide variety of literature that exists. At the end of the year, the top readers who had accumulated the most stamps and points earned an Amazon Kindle Fire for their efforts.

Key takeaways

  1. Moffat County elementary students are taking part in a reading program designed to get them out of their comfort zone.
  2. The program is called Passport to Reading.
  3. It is sponsored by the Craig Rotary Club.

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
