Pick A Reading Partner- PARP 2018
Wantagh Elementary PTA
PARP is Coming Soon!
Our Theme
This year's theme READERS BUILD A KINDER WORLD is intended to help children see that by reading they can learn about other cultures, ideas and lifestyles that differ from their own. The hope is that this exposure helps them become more compassionate and kind people as they learn more about the human condition from different perspectives. The kindness theme will weave through all activities encouraging children to contribute to not only their local community but the community at large.
Author Susan Verde Assembly & Book Orders
This year the whole school will be meeting Susan Verde, an author. She will sign books that are pre-ordered and then bring them to the school assembly. The preorder sheet went home this week and is also attached. We hope you may consider ordering!
