The Davis County Summer Youth Literacy Project involved about 30 students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. They had the chance e to work at a job while also studying math and reading the other half of the day. The overall grade-levgain for reading was one year and 11 months while one exceeded six years gain. In math, the average was two years and two months although many added well over three years to their comprehension level. Students received literacy training at the Clearfield Job Corps Center. The program was part-tim- el by Davis County Employment and Training, Davis School District and the Private Industry Council. High school credit was awarded to those improving their math and reading scores. Employment and Training Direc- tor Richard Nelson notes the award was the only one given to anyone in the state. The program was a pilot project approved by the federal Department of Labor. The program followed on the heels of a request from the Labor Department that such a program be included to try and assure participants didnt lose ground academically during the summer. In addition, it was hoped they could gain literacy skills enabling them to compete more successfully four in five of students gave the program good or excellent ket or vocational education in regu training.
