The magic number is 276. Rutland South Rotary Club’s Project Dictionary recently donated 276 dictionaries to third graders at Rutland Intermediate School, Proctor Elementary, Rutland Town School, Clarendon Elementary, Rutland Area Christian School, Barstow, and Christ the King. Rotarians visited these schools, distributed the dictionaries, and engaged with the students. Supporting childhood literacy is one of Rutland South’s top priorities, and has participated in Project Dictionary for over 20 years.
