The anticipation for Young People's Poet Laureate Elizabeth Acevedo's visit to RHS on April 24th is palpable!
We're beyond thrilled and extend a massive thank you to the RPEF for their invaluable support in making this event possible.
To mark this occasion and pay tribute to Hispanic Heritage Month, Chartwells whipped up a batch of mouthwatering, freshly baked empanadas that had everyone's taste buds dancing with delight!
Adding to the excitement, students and staff gathered in the media center for our inaugural Book of the Month Club meeting.
The chosen book, "Clap When You Land," captivated our hearts and minds, sparking a lively and thoughtful discussion that left us all inspired and eager for more literary adventures.
This event truly embodies the spirit of community, culture, and the power of storytelling. 📚🌟
We invite all members of our community, students, parents, and staff alike, to dive into the works of Elizabeth Acevedo.
Her writing is a powerful force that resonates with readers of all ages, offering a window into diverse experiences and perspectives.
In addition to "Clap When You Land," Acevedo has crafted other remarkable titles like "The Poet X" and "With the Fire on High," each a literary gem waiting to be discovered.
The Book of the Month Club will be reading “Exit West” by Moshin Hamid next.
