Thank You for Keeping Georgia Reading.
Behind every growing reader is an educator who encouraged one more page, introduced one more story and helped build one more moment of confidence.
This Georgia Reads Day, we celebrate Georgia’s teachers, media specialists and school leaders for creating classrooms where curiosity grows and reading comes to life. Thank you for helping students discover the knowledge, imagination and possibilities found in every book.

Talk More. Sing More. Read More.
Your voice is one of your child’s most powerful learning tools. Talking through everyday moments, singing favorite songs and reading together help newborns and young children build language, strengthen connections and develop skills that support lifelong learning.
Healthcare providers, caregivers and families all play an important role. Start early, make it part of every day and remember: every word makes a difference.
