FAMILY READING NIGHT!

The proceeds from our fall fundraiser will enable us to purchase a promethean board for the school. The cost is considerably less than we had budgeted, so the PTA Executive Board has decided to participate in a great program - FAMILY READING NIGHT! To kick things off, we are very interested in organizing a whole school reading activity, One School, One Book. This program began in Richmond and people across the country have participated. The idea is to create a bond between all students in a learning community. Each child is given a copy of the same book and together as a school, the book is read, questions are asked and conversations take place between students at different age levels.

More information will be coming home soon!

Thank you.
