Pick Your Part Steps Up for Reading!

Pick Your Part is pleased to announce that its Largo (FL) location, led by District Manager Jim Wagner and Plant Manager Stephen Dziadul, with assistance from Adam Swartout, has officially launched its annual Rewards for Readers program in collaboration with Walsingham Elementary School. The Pick Your Part team built the reading program in cooperation with the principal and staff of Walsingham Elementary to help third-grade students strive for reading success throughout the year.

Several years ago, Walsingham Elementary struggled with some of the lowest reading scores in all the Tampa Bay school districts. With the Reward for Readers program, our location is giving back to its community and helping students improve their reading scores. As a result, Walsingham Elementary is no longer a bottom performer and is leading the way with some of the highest reading scores in its district. In addition, Pick Your Part was named Elementary Business Partner of the Year  by Pinellas Education Foundation two years in a row for creating this program. We are eager to continue this partnership through the 2022/2023 school year, and we have many fun activities planned to keep the kids motivated toward their educational goals throughout the year.
