FROM THE DESK OF THE SUPERINTENDENT

Congratulations on the conclusion of another successful school year. As we begin the summer vacation, I would like to share some research on the importance of summer reading and the value of both independent reading and modeling reading by parents and guardians.  During my teaching career, I could easily identify the students who read independently at home.  These children usually showed the following characteristics:

  • Their vocabulary was superior
  • Their oral and independent comprehension skills were outstanding
  • Their “love of reading” was evident
  • They were familiar with the local library and visited often
  • The lifelong habit of reading for pleasure is developed at a young age.
