We have some “roaring” news to share! The Lawrence Township Education Foundation (LTEF) recently announced its 2024–2025 grant awards, totaling over $42,000 for innovative school programs. We are incredibly honored to announce that Little Lions Literacy decodable books were officially selected as a funded resource to support students within the Lawrence Township Public School District!

Investing in the Science of Reading
The LTEF is known for funding “extraordinary learning opportunities,” and we couldn’t agree more that foundational literacy is the most important investment a community can make.
By selecting Little Lions Literacy, Lawrence educators are doubling down on the Science of Reading. Our decodable books aren’t just stories; they are precision tools designed to help young readers in all K-2 classrooms:
- Master Phonics: Moving from simple sounds to complex blends with confidence.
- Build Fluency:Â Using research-backed sequences that eliminate guessing.
- Develop Love for Reading:Â With engaging characters and diverse stories that make “hard work” feel like play.
School District Success: Little Lions Literacy in Every Elementary Classroom
This grant isn’t just about books on a shelf; it’s about giving teachers the high-quality, teacher-developed resources they need to reach every student. When a foundation like LTEF vets and funds a program, it sends a powerful message: evidence-based literacy works.
We want to extend a huge “thank you” to the visionary educators in Lawrence who advocated for these resources and to the LTEF for their commitment to academic excellence. We can’t wait to see these books in the hands of Lawrence’s “Little Lions!”
