Summer Reading Program Launched
Kenneth P. LaValle
June 14, 2012
With the end of the school year rapidly approaching, Senator LaValle is inviting all students in the First Senate District to participate in the State Senate's Summer Reading Program. Senator LaValle and the New York State Senate are sponsoring this free program to encourage students throughout our community to continue reading over the next summer vacation.
To complete Senator LaValle’s reading challenge, students will be asked to read over the summer and record their thoughts about their chosen works on reading logs.
"Reading is such a valuable part of a young student’s education that it is vital they continue practicing over the summer months. This program will hopefully help parents keep their children interested in reading and help the children build a stronger foundation for the next school year,” said Senator LaValle.
Parents and students interested in participating in this program should visit www.nyread.com to register and review the program's details.
