TTRR
TTRR is a reading incentive program that encourages Middle School students to read books outside the classroom and obtain rewards for reading. Over the life of the program, over
1,000,000 students have participated in the program, read an estimated
5,000,000 books, redeemed nearly 1
,500,000 rewards and attended
150,000 local men's and women's NCAA basketball games — all at no cost to the school district or its students. The TTRR program was founded in 2002 by the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). The program has three primary components: reading rewards,tickets to local college basketball games and a coaching component for Middle School coaches to both learn new techniques and to act as mentors for the reading program.

“I have heard from several teachers and school administrators who have said that TTRR not only improves literacy among middle school students, but also affords them their initial opportunity to visit a college campus.”
