Seuss Reading Night at Sac a Success!

On Tuesday March 3rd children and adults gathered in their pajamas to have fun with reading and to celebrate Dr.Seuss' birthday. The Cat in the Hat made a surprise visit to the classrooms and even enjoyed cocoa and cookies with a few lucky kids. The best part of the night was the smiles on the children's faces as they left with a new book.

Reading, games, bingo,

  and story time in Spanish too!
