A School Based Community Outreach-A Dedicated Promotion Of Literacy

Patrick Henry Elementary School, Alexandria City School System, wrapped their arms around their school-based community during the evening hours of March 1...all for the love of reading.  The administration and the staff members alike, provided for their "Community of Learners" a Reading Is Fundamental Book Distribution that welcomed the students of Patrick Henry Elementary School and their family members.  Laughter, conversations, and good will could be seen from one end of the school cafeteria to the other.

This "Literacy Bingo and Community Outreach" brought over 125 students and their family members to the evening event at Patrick Henry Elementary.  Snacks were offered to one and all.  The administration and the staff members of Patrick Henry provided informative literature and presentations to the families attending, in regard to setting time aside to read "at home."  
 
Hat's off to the "Community of Learners" at Patrick Henry Elementary School!



Most grateful,
