A dictionary teaches a child how to approach a problem and use critical thinking skills by sounding out the word and finding it in the dictionary. This simple task gives them a feeling of self-confidence and satisfaction that they cannot get online.

The Apple Valley Rotary Club has been providing dictionaries to all 3rd graders in the Apple Valley Unified School District for at least 15 years. The Dictionary Project is a lifesaver! Without your support, out club could not afford to provide these dictionaries to all our students.
