SRD Celebrates Literacy With Garden Party

Bloomingdale school invited families to join teachers in their 'jammies' for a night of reading activities.

The Samuel R. Donald School held a wonderful Literacy Night Garden Party event Wednesday that was well attended. Our school theme this year is Growing Together so we wanted to extend the theme as SRD is growing readers.  

Principal, Sherri Glaab and District Supervisor of Curriculum Kristine Dudlo organized the school wide event. We had a full house as our families enjoyed a read aloud by Interim Superintendent Frank Buglione.

Our families read their favorite stories dressed in jammies as they nestled on the gymnasium floor on cozy blankets. Children then created Book Boxes to store their favorite stories and decorated their boxes with markers, crayons, stickers and stencils.

What a great night to highlight literacy and the importance it plays within the life of an elementary student!
