the budget i'm proposing increases the pre-k school year for 84,000 students by ten days, bringing it to 170 days. [ applause ] i'm proud to say that this will begin the process of restoring pre-k teacher salaries. certainly something that needs to be done. we must make a concerted effort to increase the percentage of children reading at grade level by the completion of the third grade. the best evidence tells us that children not meeting this standard often fail to catch up and are more likely to drop out of school, go to prison, and have higher unemployment rates later in life than their reading proficient peers. students must learn to read in order to be able to read to learn. and when we fail to invest in our youngest students, we are forced to spend money on remediation for the remainder of their academic careers. to this end, my budget includes $1.6 million for a reading mentors program. this program will assist schools and teachers as they work to help more young georgians achieve this strategic benchmark, reading at grade level by the completion of the third grade.
