    Parent Acknowledgements

    I understand:

    • The New Haven Reads (NHR) program is for children who are struggling with reading.
    • My child will be added to the Waitlist on the date I submit a completed Waitlist application form AND a copy of his/her most recent report card.
    • I am responsible for making sure that my phone numbers are current.
    • NHR fills openings based on the date a child is entered on the Waitlist. When space becomes available for my child, NHR will attempt to contact me using the phone numbers I have provided.
    • If I do not respond within the time frame indicated in the message, the space will be offered to another child.
    • After three unsuccessful attempts to offer my child placement in the program, NHR will remove my child from the Waitlist.
    • I can find other resources for my child at https://newhavenreads.org/resources/literacy-resources.
