Evergreen Summertime Readers Celebrate
DIAMOND BAR, CA-- Each year Evergreen Elementary School hosts a Summer Reading Program coordinated by media technician Sharon Dea.
Participating students complete a variety of fun literary activities including reading books, memorizing poems, writing stories, and doing research.
In May, students were given beach balls to record their activities.
On Friday, August 26, over 200 students brought their beach balls “autographed” with the summer’s literacy accomplishments for a back to school celebration.
Congratulations to these dedicated readers!
