Read Across Jamaica Day 2024

Woman reads to students in classroom

What a day! A Big THANK YOU to all of the volunteers who took the time to share their love of books by reading with our students on Read Across Jamaica Day. Students also:

  • put their skills to the test, while having fun in an interactive games arcade
  • shopped for books at our very own book fair hosted by The Book Merchant’s Sharon Elliott
  • participated in interactive Jamaican folktale sessions let by retired Performing Arts Specialist Donna Dorman from the Leila Dorman Foundation

The number of students reading at or above grade level is up 34.5% in the school wide IDRI for the 2022-23 academic year.
