Character Counts is a reading program that was established in the Rotary Club of Thomasville several years ago and this program has changed a bit with the school system's needs. We instead partnered with Literacy for Thomas County and participated in their Dictionary Distribution Drive and their Dr. Seuss celebration week.
This program provides a dictionary for every third grade student in Thomas County to receive a free student dictionary that will go with them throughout their scholastic careers.
In addition to the Dictionary Distribution, the Youth Services committee also served the school system through a Dr. Seuss celebration where we posed as authors and narrators and read different books to 3rd and 4th grade classes in our county school system.
