The opening of Literacy Month at LCS went a little like this!🥳📖
Theme: “Readers are Leaders: Read Today, Lead Tomorrow!”

Students were reminded of the importance of literacy, listened to an interesting fable read by Tr. Young and had a mini parade for a photo op on the playground!

This week we continue to promote literacy with the National Day to D.E.A.R on September 8th.
We encourage you to Drop Everything And Read for just 15-20 minutes tomorrow and the rest of the week.

Stay tuned for all the upcoming activities for the remainder of the month as we continue to celebrate and promote literacy!💛
