The mission of Reading Writing It's Exciting, Inc. is to create an elementary school program in Los Angeles that improves the writing and reading abilities of second grade students who aren't currently reading and writing at their grade level and are at risk of falling behind.

We meet with the second grade teachers at their school to find out which of their students need the most help. Then we have continuing 4-week sessions (From November to May) in which we help the students write 1-2 page stories, and then help them read their story. At the end of the school year, the students are given the opportunity to read one of their stories in front of their families and friends at a Barnes & Noble bookstore.
