It’s National Reading Month!
“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”
~ Dr. Seuss
In honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, March is designated as National Reading Month – a month to motivate Americans of all ages to read every day. The article “10 Benefits of Reading: Why You Should Read Every Day” explains why reading can calm nerves, increase vocabulary, improve memory, and so much more!
Please grab your calendar and make note of several upcoming events. There is a Dyslexia workshop opportunity on Saturday, March 30th from 9 a.m. – noon, and a workshop for our English Language Learner (ELL) tutors on Tuesday, March 20th from 6-8 p.m. Both workshops will be held at Woods Memorial Presbyterian Church in Severa Park. If you are interested in attending either of these workshops, please contact tutor coordinator Jane Seiss at jane.seiss@gmail.com as soon as possible to reserve a seat.
We are already at capacity with 200 reservations for our April 25th Annual Appreciation dinner! If you have not yet reserved a seat and would like to attend, a wait list has been started in case of possible cancellations. Please contact jane.seiss@gmail.com for more information.
Kind regards,
Lisa Vernon, Executive Director
