WE ARE FAMILY: October is Family Engagement Month and November is National Family Literacy Month! The Alabama Reading Initiative is excited to share family resource videos highlighting how everyday moments can become meaningful opportunities to build children's language and literacy skills. The first video shows how something as routine as a trip to the grocery store can inspire lifelong learning 🍎🍌🥬

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

While we have some improving to do when it comes to speed, we’ve definitely got spirit covered when it comes to the Shoals Dragon Boat Festival. Thank you to Senator Larry Stutts for sponsoring our team to benefit the Shoals Scholar Dollars. And, thank you to the Forest Hills PTO for making our tent beautiful! This was an amazing opportunity for us to connect with each other and our community.
