Dear Friends of Reading to Kids,
We still have a few more openings for our August 8th reading clubs, so
sign up today! If you can no longer attend, make sure to
cancel your RSVP so others can join in on the fun!
In addition to a book, each child will receive a movie poster. We will also be giving away entertainment-themed goodies, and one lucky student at each school will receive a newly refurbished computer!

You

Kindergarten Orientations,

These events set the course for the rest of the school year

and teachers!
