Nothing. As long as you are a Reach for Reading school, utilizing either the Reaching Up or Reaching Higher program, regular school visits are a part of our commitment to your school's success.

What do the Reach for Reading programs cost?

There is a one-time site fee and a "consumables" fee for each student's materials. For specific information on costs, please contact your regional sales consultant.
