Reading at Home
Research shows that the more positive reading experiences children have, the better readers and writers they are.
As soon as we finish administering reading assessments, we will begin sending home books for your child to read. This will not replace the reading they already do; it will supplement it with an additional book to dive into.
Our goal is to start on October 2.
