"You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child." - Dr. Seuss
Dr. Jarod Mendenhall, the Superintendent of Muskogee Public Schools, celebrated Read Across America Week by spending the morning reading to students at Irving Elementary. This week-long event aims to make reading fun and exciting for students, who participate in activities like dressing up as characters from Dr. Seuss's books, making crafts, and enjoying story-time. The staff and
community volunteers understand that literacy is the key to student achievement and success, and they work hard to foster a love of learning in our students.
