Inside the Williamson Road Library in Roanoke, Va. — suspended from the ceiling in an area where young children sit together for story time — an oversized star created using iLight Plexineon LED fixtures serves as a symbol of how the city is looking out for its children.
Roanoke has been honored with a record seven All-America City awards for an ongoing, community-wide effort to help all of its young children master the ability to read. The program, called “Star City Reads,” aims to ensure that every child is able to read proficiently by the end of third grade — a benchmark time in a child’s life that has proven critical for paving the path to future academic success.
