BrownwoodNews – In recognition of National Young Readers Week Nov. 5-9, the BOOK IT! Program will continue its tradition of challenging principals across the country to be examples for literacy and read one entire school day – from the first bell to last – during that week.
The Principal Challenge is part of The Pizza Hut BOOK IT! Program’s National Young Readers Week celebration November 5-9 that is an annual event co-founded by Pizza Hut and the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress.
One lucky principal will win Kate DiCamillo books for their entire school! Each K-6 grade student will go home with their very own new book just in time for winter break.
This year, Principal Todd Lewis, Stacy Loftin and Ann Fowler will be reading the JUNIE B. JONES book series in the front main hallway of Coggin 4&5 School. All staff of Coggin 4&5 and Coggin 6 will be dressed in character of any Junie B. Jones book to support the love of reading books!
The event will take place all day November 8th in an effort to raise awareness for the importance of literacy and generate a passion for reading among young people.
