Morrison Rotary Club Literacy Committee Chair Ellen Smith submitted these photos of one class which is receiving free books throughout the 2018-2019 school year. Parent donations supported the program, Smith noted.
Northside School children received their October installment of free, monthly books, provided by Morrison Rotary Club. Increasing literacy is an important goal of the organization. Below are children in Karen Mayberry’s class.
These 23 First Grade students chose a book to take home during November 2018.
Rotary also provides books in conjunction with Morrison High School’s B.L.I.N.D. student service organization. Teen members Shanna Hudson and Lexi Allen read to Mayberry’s youngsters; brought each child a book; distributed candy canes, prior to the holiday break.
