3. Dr. Seuss Day is this week! (Wednesday, March 2)
On Wednesday, March 2nd PreK-3rd grade students will be celebrating one of our favorite authors with so many fun learning activities! Part of celebrating Dr. Seuss is to celebrate his LOVE for reading. One of our rotations on Dr. Seuss day will consist of the students "Reading Across America" to earn a certificate in honor of their support for Dr. Seuss' love for learning and reading. The teachers have planned the activities, acquired the needed materials, and now we need your help to volunteer your time to make this day run smoothly! We have time slots available from 8-10 am, 11-12 pm (Lunch Duty), and 12-3 pm. Please click on the link below if you are able to come volunteer for this special day!
