Guest Readers & Volunteers Wanted during Read Across America Week!
Carolina Forest Elementary School is celebrating Read Across America Week February 28-March 4. We are so excited to engage our students in Camp Read A Lot as we go through the week. One way we are looking to spark our students’ interest in reading is through having guest readers read to classes throughout the week! If you are available, we would love to have you read either in person or virtually to a class of students. If you are interested, please fill out the following form so that we can work on scheduling your visit!
