At Carson Elementary School, the month of March began with a celebration to kick off the start of Read Across America Month in honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday. Students across all grades participated in a Vocabulary Hat Parade throughout the school and a “Drop Everything and Read” event.

Students in second grade spent time reading some well known and some not-so-well known Dr. Seuss books, including his final written piece, “What Pet Should I Get?”

Reading was at the forefront of everything we did in March. Students participated in a nightly reading challenge, which culminated with an enjoyable celebration in the school library.

Carson School students enjoyed every opportunity they received to show off their love for reading!
