I am thankful for a district that puts literacy at the forefront of this work. I am super proud of students who worked hard to memorize and recite their poems today for Literacy Days. Thankful to judges who came to support us. @ELA_HCS @Timberridge_HCS #HenryReads

“I go boo. Make them shoo. I make fun. Way they run. I won't cry. So they fly. I just smile. They go wild” I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this poem being recited at Literacy Day @TES_hcs! Continue to inspire students to love literacy! @DawnAndersonHCS @HCS_Title_I
