YES WE CAN!                      

 


Our Mission

Light A Candle For Literacy (“LACFL”) strives to build healthier communities through grass roots efforts in the broader Central New York community and nationally by contributing to the development of children who will become productive citizens. 

LACFL strives for parents, family members and educators to encourage children in their educational pursuits.  We strongly encourage and advocate that parents, family members and educators lead by positive example.  We encourage community leaders and members to become involved and to commit resources to address literacy needs, both locally and nationally.

LACFL wants children to have and retain the skills that they need to succeed academically, but even more important, we want them to fully participate in a literate society.  We identify practices that are effective in improving student achievements in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics and other curricula.  We will facilitate the implementation of these practices in order to achieve the goal of increasing the number of children who are at or above grade level.
