📚What a spectacular day we had at SFCS yesterday as we celebrated, “Read Across🇺🇸America”! This celebration began in 1998 to highlight the importance of reading and promote literacy across our country. The students met with their buddies to connect, engage and read so many wonderful books from Dr. Seuss.🌟Special thanks to our student council who donated 2 books📕to all the classroom libraries and pencils✏️ for our teachers! #SFCS
👮🏻♂️State Police Officers Lee and Cimilluca came to talk about safety to our Kindergarten classes today. The children were so excited when the officers read them a Dr. Seuss book to kick off our school’s “Read across America”🇺🇸 celebration tomorrow. #SFCS

📚Our third grade classes have been completing monthly book projects. After they read a book of a different genre, they would present their completed project to the class. For the month of February, the students read biographies and dressed up as the person they read about. They became their character as they shared important facts about their lives. Today 3A and 3B were visited by many famous people from history to present day including: Albert💡Einstein, Leonardo🎨da Vinci, Derek⚾️Jeter, Helen👓Keller, Frida👩🏽🎨 Kahlo, George🇺🇸Washington and Taylor🎤Swift. Our students are truly learning and living a love of reading!📖 #SFCS
