Welcome to Project MORE! 

Project MORE, Mentoring in Ohio for Reading Excellence, is a scientifically based reading research volunteer reading mentoring project for students with disabilities, that has demonstrated statistically significant reading results since 1999. Independent research findings consistently report students with specific learning disabilities make one month reading level gain for each month they are reading mentored.  These children receive 1:1 reading mentoring four times/week for 30 minutes.
 

See Project MORE's published research article in the December 2007 issue of CEC's Division on Developmental Disabilities "Education and Training in Developmental Disabilities" Journal.[Click here to download PDF copy]

Mission Statement

Project MORE is a research proven structured reading mentoring project designed to improve the reading levels of students with disabilities using 1:1 volunteer mentors. Based on research, interviews and data collection over the past nine years, Project MORE is:  Effective, Affordable, Replicable and Sustainable (EARS).  Our mission is to significantly improve the reading levels of students with disabilities in Ohio. 

How Does My School Get Involved?

Project MORE has partnerships with over 130 Ohio schools for the 08/09 school year. We have funding for a limited number of new grant partnerships for this school year.  By joining Ohio's most effective and affordable reading mentoring program, your students with disabilities can make month for month reading gains with the help of trained volunteers. The cost for operating a Project MORE school is approximately $1-2/ mentor hour for veteran schools and $4-5/mentor hour for newly established schools.
