Story: Nebraska Humanities Council

“After the final (Prime Time Family Reading Time) program, I was talking with the mother of a six year old boy who had hated reading. Hated it so much he was doing very poorly in school. She feared he would never be successful and one day drop out. She knew what happens to most young Hispanic men who don't finish school. In the six weeks since they had come to Prime Time, he had come to love reading and was starting to like school. In her heart and mind, we had saved her son's life.”
