Learning Lab Idaho

Classes start today and we're looking forward to seeing everyone. We hope you had a fun and relaxing summer! We've been working to get students enrolled, classrooms reset, and lessons prepared. We are ready for the fall semester!

Coordinated outfits ✅ Foursome fun ✅ Supporting adult & family literacy ✅ Huge thanks to all who made our first-ever #LinksForLiteracy golf scramble a success! ⛳ You showed up in style — and in support of Learning Lab’s mission. 💛

A big thanks to Capital Matrix for their continued investment in Learning Lab and our students! This $10,000 gift is going to help us continue to offer free, personalized education for adults and families in our community.

Come spend a Friday morning golfing for a great cause! Swing on over to our website (fore!😊) and register your team today. 🏌️‍♂️fundraise.givesmart.com/e/ZmtZOw?vid=1… #LinksForLiteracy

A fun weekend watch (or listen - it's also a podcast) about the long, strange quest to simplify English spelling. Learn why the Chicago Tribune made simplified spelling its house style for decades and why Roosevelt's attempt to make it law backfired. youtube.com/watch?v=VmfUBm…

It’s graduation day across the Treasure Valley, and that includes our tiniest scholars! 🎓 Celebrating our preschool graduates who’ve worked hard all year and are now kindergarten ready! 🥳

48M adults in the U.S. read below a 3rd-grade level — and most programs aren’t built to help them. At Learning Lab, we are. This powerful article shows why our work matters: thefp.com/p/a-fifth-of-a… #AdultLiteracy #LiteracyForAll #CommunityImpact

We're just $1,000 away from unlocking a $5,000 #IdahoGives match! 💛 Every dollar supports GED prep, tutoring, and early literacy kits. Help us cross the finish line + double your impact: idahogives.org/organizations/… #LiteracyForAll #NonprofitStrong #DoubleTheImpact

We're helping neighbors learn to read and write in English, which helps them do anything, from helping their child with homework to applying for a job. Please consider supporting literacy education right here in our community during #IdahoGives: lnkd.in/gmcEvM5

Springtime in Esther Simplot Park. 💛 Hope you’re enjoying this wonderful weekend!

We have 31 volunteers who have been with us for more than 10 years!! We’re in awe. 🫶 As we continue to say thank you to our group of 300 volunteers during #VolunteerAppreciationWeek, we’re also sharing a couple of the posters our students made to express their gratitude. 💛

This photo says it all! Our 300+ volunteers go above and beyond in making our program such a special place. 💛 At our annual appreciation party, Mary Jane & Cait had the crowd laughing and shouting, with stories of heart, humor, and a passion for helping others. Thank you to all!

Strong partnerships = stronger communities. Thank you Delta Dental for bringing your oral health expertise to our family literacy program! From brushing tips to sugar shockers (we see you, root beer 👀), our families learned so much. #CommunityPartners #OralHealth #FamilyLiteracy

Isn't today's weather incredible! Has us thinking about lovely mornings out on a golf course. ⛳️ICYMI, we're hosting a scramble in June! Register now and save the date: fundraise.givesmart.com/e/ZmtZOw?vid=1… It'll be a wonderful way to start a summer weekend! #LinksForLiteracy

We recently celebrated several of our adult learners who have earned their U.S. Citizenship! 🎉 From cake and photos to a mock civics quiz (spoiler: our students crushed it!), it was a joyful way to honor their hard work, dedication, and community spirit. #FeelGoodFriday

To our corps of volunteers... mark your calen-"dill"-ars, our appreciation party is coming and we'd "relish" the chance to celebrate you! 🥒 Time and place below and in your inbox. Food, friends, and fun await. #VolunteerAppreciation #BigDillEnergy #KindOfABigDill

Did you know, we teach job trainees at Deseret Industries on Tuesdays and Thursdays—and they get paid to learn! 🙌 With more students likely joining, we're looking for volunteer tutors to join the fun. Interested? Reach out to us! #VolunteerOpportunity #AdultEd #LiteracyForAll

Our preschoolers were thrilled to recently receive these adorable, handcrafted teddy bears. Thank you to the kind-hearted volunteers who brought joy (and snuggles!) to our classroom. 💛🧸

Here are 3 more students who have recently achieved their dream of becoming U.S. citizens! 🇺🇸✨ We are proud of their hard work and grateful for our dedicated volunteer tutors who help make these milestones possible.

Congratulations to our newest GED graduate! 👏We are so inspired by you! #LiteracyForAll #AdultLiteracy
