Students at Willow Road School celebrated beloved author Dr. Seuss' birthday by decorating classroom doors and hallways and with a special literacy event.
To encourage a love of reading and books, the Willow Road PTA generously donated books to all the students. Each class was invited to the library to choose from a wide selection of well-known titles and famous authors. Making this event extra special was the additional gift of a Dr. Seuss themed pencil.
Working with the PTA, librarian CaroleAnne Weik selected books familiar to her as all-time favorites and popular titles. March 2 was a national day to celebrate reading with "Read Across America Day" – nationwide all school age students were reading books to support the Parents As Reading Partners (PARP) and Be Excited About Reading (BEAR) activities.
Students left the library smiling and excited to get home and curl up with their new books.
