Lower School Celebrates World Read Aloud Day
Join the lower school in celebrating the power of words! On March 9th, we will celebrate World Read Aloud Day, sponsored by LitWorld, a non-profit organization dedicated to achieving global literacy through advocacy, education and access. Each classroom will participate in special reading activities spend some time reflecting on the idea that reading and writing are rights for all people and that literacy can create an important transformative power. There are many ways that you can celebrate with your children at home, through LitWorld's Facebook event, or take a trip to Times Square for the 24-hr Read Aloud Marathon! For more info, please visit www.litworld.org.

What is your family's favorite book? Join the lower school by making a donation of your family's favorite children's book to support family literacy workshops being held at Harlem Children's Zone. Please make your donations to any of the drop boxes located on the 6th & 7th floors near the elevator doors. Donations will be accepted until March 18th!
