Be on the lookout for fun days of dress up, reading and celebrating the literary genius of Dr. Seuss within the district for Dr. Seuss Week , March 2-6!
This is an annual, school-focused celebration held around March 2nd (the author's birthday) to promote reading, often aligning with National Read Across America Day. It features themed, book-based dress-up days—such as wearing stripes, crazy socks, or green—alongside classroom activities, crafts, and reading sessions to foster a love for literacy!
