Our community school directors (CSDs) worked with their administrators and fellow teachers to generate positive ideas to get books in the hands of our youth. These activities ranged from: book bingo to read alouds, buddy reading, spirit week themes and more.
In the photo to your left you will see Aron, a Diehl Elementary School student leader, meeting Mayor Joe Schember for the very first time. Mayor Schember, one of Diehl's guest readers, read to Aron's fifth-grade class. Aron will likely remember this experience for a lifetime, which is tied back to Read Across Erie County Day.
Karen Donnelly, Diehl Elementary CSD, tallied all minutes read across Erie County for a grand total of 31,175 minutes.
With that. we encourage at least 20 minutes a day.
Donnelly says, "reading is not just for a day, but for a lifetime," and she is right!
