Each year the Medford-Vincentown Rotary Club distributes Dictionary’s through Medford to third-grade students. The object of the Rotary Dictionary Project is to provide third-grade students a personal dictionary of their very own that will serve them at least through elementary and middle school. Many educators and researchers see this as a key to better reading, speech, and writing. The Rotary Dictionary Project is a worldwide project and members provide a brief explanation of Rotary service in the community and around the world (giving students a lasting positive impression of Rotary and the idea of service).
