HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

READ ACROSS AMERICA WEEK
According to the National Education Association, motivating children to read is an important factor in student achievement and creating lifelong successful readers. Research has shown that children who are motivated and spend more time reading do better in school.  Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped millions of children learn to read.  We will be celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday February 26 through March 2 with the following themes each day:
Monday, 2/26: The Cat in the Hat Day -- Wear your favorite hat.
Tuesday, 2/27: Fox in Socks Day -- Wear your craziest pair of socks.
Wednesday, 2/28: Wacky Wednesday Day -- Wear your wackiest outfit.
Thursday, 3/1: Oh the Places You'll Go Day -- Wear a shirt from a place you have visited.
Friday, 3/2: Dr. Seuss's Birthday -- Dress up like your favorite character.
