Zane North Students Celebrate Seuss by Reading

Zane North celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday and Read Across America this week with a host of activities that reinforced the importance of literacy.

While dressing up in crazy socks, hats and T-shirts from favorite places, students at Zane cheerfully shared tales of their favorite books and characters.

In another twist to promote a love for reading, the entire Zane community joined together in a “ school-wide read out.” Students of all ages were observed having a good time reading in the hallways with the staff and Principal Santo. A variety of genres were examined such as: historical fiction, mystery, nonfiction, biography, realistic fiction, science fiction and fantasy.

By celebrating Dr. Seuss and the importance of reading, it is our hope to send a clear message that reading is fun as well as important!
