St. Cloud School Distict 742 Local Education & Activities Foundation (LEAF) announced they have received a grant to continue the PAKRAT program during the summer of 2017.

For the last couple summers you may have noticed the bright green bus driving around your neighborhood handing out books to preschool through third grade students. Partners And Kids Reading A-lot Together, otherwise known as PAKRAT, received an anonymous $25,000 gift to continue their child-literacy and parent involvement program for another year.

PAKRAT was started in 2011 with the help of LEAF.
