Today is National Read Across America Day which coincides with Dr. Seuss's birthday! Harts PK-8 students dressed up to promote the importance of reading! All LCS schools have had a great week celebrating literacy and have read some great books. Did your student dress up today? Let's see some wacky outfits in the comments!
More from Educators Rising! Jasmine Vance is also in the Educators Rising CTE Program at LCHS. Yesterday afternoon, Jasmine was at Harts PK-8 to teach a lesson to kindergartners. Jasmine read them the book "The Floor is LAVA." Afterwords, students drew pictures showing how they would get the characters from the book across a lava floor. They finished up the lesson by building a bridge across a light box, which represented lava, to get their bears across the box. Jasmine was excellent with the students, and the little ones had a great time!
Katie Browning is an LCHS student with plans of being a teacher one day. Katie participates in the high school's Educators Rising CTE program. This program works with students starting in high school who are interested in becoming teachers. Today, Katie taught a lesson at Hamlin PK-8 to Ms. Kristie's Kindergarten Class. Students learned how to fold paper into different shapes to make a 3-D model. They all had a blast and Katie did an amazing job leading the lesson!

Thank you to all the parents, guardians, and students for taking some time to show some love to our bus drivers.

Last week, GVMS 7th and 8th grade students had the opportunity to tour BridgeValley Community and Technical College.
