For the middle-school boys in Jennifer Melton’s Tier 3 reading intervention group at Crest Middle School last year, being pulled out of PE likely added a touch of FOMO to the mix.

Thadeus is a fifth grader at Oakridge Elementary School in Oakridge, OR who has made remarkable progress in Read Live.
