Brand-new Farsi translation of English reading materials will help strengthen literacy skills and improve educational outcomes for newcomer students from Afghanistan.<\/em><\/p>

Tuesday, September 24, 2024 \u2013 WEST SACRAMENTO \u2013 <\/strong>As part of its partnership with Raising a Reader<\/a> and Washington Unified School District, the Masons of California<\/a> today announced that it is funding a new program to provide bilingual books with Farsi translation for 150 young Afghan refugees currently enrolled in the Washington Unified School District in West Sacramento. That city is home of one of the largest populations of Afghan refugees in the United States.<\/p>

\"\"\u201cImagine starting a life in a new country and not being able to communicate with your teachers and peers,\u201d said Doug Ismail, president of the California Masonic Foundation<\/a>. \u201cAs three organizations connected by their commitment to literacy, public education, and improving educational outcomes, the partnership between the Masons of California, Raising a Reader, and the Washington Unified School District leverages key resources from each entity to maximize impact on Afghan refugee students throughout the district.\u201d<\/p>

To date, 61 percent of Raising a Reader program participants read at or above grade level in first grade, compared to 43 percent statewide. These bilingual books will improve educational outcomes for newcomer Afghan refugee students who did not grow up speaking English as a first language and increase access to growth opportunities in school and beyond.<\/p>

\"\"“As we launch Raising a Reader’s new Farsi collection, we are reaffirming our commitment to ensuring that every child feels seen, supported, and valued,” said Michelle Torgerson, president and CEO of Raising a Reader. “By offering books in native languages, we help foster a love of reading and learning among children and families across the United States. This bilingual collection is particularly meaningful as it supports newly arrived Afghan families and helps build strong family connections through reading together.\u201d<\/p>

Through the partnership with Washington Unified School District, the Masons of California will bring the Farsi-translated materials to 50 classrooms across the district. In total, the Masons of California have supplied Raising a Reader materials to more than 900 classrooms across California, primarily focusing on underserved schools with below-grade-level reading scores. The organization hopes to continue expanding these partnerships, with a goal of reaching at least 1,000 classrooms throughout the state.<\/p>

\u201cWith more than 2,500 students from countries outside the United States attending school in our district, it is clear that West Sacramento is seeing a rise of newcomers,\u201d said Dr. Cheryl P. Hildreth, superintendent of Washington Unified School District. \u201cWe are grateful to Raising a Reader and the Masons of California for partnering with us to improve the educational outcomes for these students.\u201d<\/p>

In addition to its partnership with Raising a Reader, the Masons of California also support public education initiatives through their Investment in Success<\/a> scholarship program, sponsorship of the California Teacher of the Year Awards<\/a>, Career and Technical Education (CTE)<\/a> programs and more.

About Washington Unified School District
<\/strong>The Washington Unified School District (WUSD) is a public school district in West Sacramento, California that serves nearly 7,500 students in grades K-12. In the 2022 academic year, the Washington Unified School District (WUSD) proudly established the Newcomer Center, a pioneer program in West Sacramento dedicated to supporting students new to the country. This center is specifically designed for students with limited prior schooling and English language knowledge, addressing a critical need as the local and statewide population of newcomer students grows rapidly.
