Reading Buddies



I recently visited  this STAIR (Start The Adventure In Reading) site at South Hampton Elementary School in Pratt City to take photos.  This volunteer tutor had these two second graders deep in a discussion about a book they were reading together.

The staff told us that once report cards came out in the fall and the parents and teachers saw such great results that there is now a waiting list to get into this after school program!

Virginia, this is my all-time favorite City Daily Photo blog post, period. Thank you so much for getting the photo and the story to go with it.

A good portrait shot, Virginia, and it sounds like an ideal initiative.

Bravo. It would be a pleasure to participate in something like this if/when I ever get to retire.
