The recent author visit to our school was a huge success, sparking excitement and engagement among students. Thank you to the amazing PTO and our passionate ITC teacher, Mrs. Lawley, for making this event possible!
Why it matters: Author visits provide students with the unique opportunity to interact directly with authors, enhancing their appreciation for literature.
These events inspire budding writers and readers, fostering a love for storytelling.
They also promote literacy and creativity within our school community.
