We’ve been participating for at least the last five years in this project. The third graders love getting their very own dictionary to have at their desk. We provide them with a letter of introduction to our organization and tell them why we’re giving them their dictionaries.

We have been doing this project for 7 years now, and it is very rewarding to see the children’s faces when they know why we have come to pass out the dictionaries. Because we are a small town children know us and ask when will you bring my dictionary. Some have older siblings that have received a dictionary in the past. This is the... Read More

We have been participating for 5 years, and it is very gratifying. When we started giving atlases to the 6th grade students last year, we found that they were our 1st 3rd-grade class with the dictionaries, and they remembered us! This is a great program!

We have been distributing dictionaries to Mauldin public school 3rd graders since 2005. It is a delight to see the excited faces of the students as we give them their dictionaries, and to be able to encourage them to use the books. This is a great project.

Those of us that deliver the dictionaries enjoy it so much because the students love to have their very own book. We also enjoy the HUGS! The teachers are always so appreciative, it makes it all worthwhile. We hope we can do this for a very long while.

We have been doing the dictionary project for several years. Since we have added the Aktion Club to our program it has become a very “feel good” project. The kids love the dictionaries, and the Aktion Club members get a great sense of community involvement by assisting with the delivery.

Community need fuels this project. Each student at Academy Hill School gets a signed copy from the Wilson Grange. It is our hope that they will carry their dictionary through their school years always remembering that their community is proud of them and wishes them the very best.

This is the eighth year our group has been a part of The Dictionary Project, starting with one school and adding another the second year. We are in a rural area with small schools, so our service is much appreciated. Very pleased with the products we’ve received and the courteous, efficient service. When any problem has come up, it’s been quickly resolved.

The contents of “A Student’s Dictionary” tie in nicely with the third grade curriculum in our schools. For some of our students, it may be the only dictionary that can be found in their home.

We are very pleased with the Dictionary Project! It has given us a contact with the school system and with children that we see on the streets of the small village we live in.
