The City of Paramount's Recreation Department recently netted two grants for educational programs from retail giant Target.
Target gave $2,000 to Success Through Academics and Recreation, an after-school program collaborative between the city and the Paramount Unified School District.
STAR, a state-funded program that operates daily in each PUSD elementary and middle school with a capacity for 100 students per campus, will use the Target grant to purchase books.
Target also gave $1,000 to the city's Little Learners Program, a pre-school operating out of Progress and Spane parks for three- and four-year-old Paramount children.
Little Learners, which teaches education fundamentals such as colors, numbers and patterns, will use the Target grants to buy books to enhance the current libraries for both preschools.
