Laura Bush participates in a reading lab with third and fourth graders at Limerick Elementary school in Los Angeles, California, Wednesday, February 18, 2004. "We know that if children don't learn to read by the end of the 3rd grade or 4th grade, their chances for learning to read decrease every year, and by the time they get to high school they're often the ones who drop out because of frustration that they -- over not being able to read," said Mrs. Bush during her visit to Limerick Elementary.
