Through the South Country School District’s Clipper Literacy Leaders initiative, high school English language arts students recently visited Kreamer Street Elementary School to read to second graders.

The students read “Isabel and Her Colores Go to School” by Alexandra Alessandri. Following the read-aloud, the high school students spearheaded a discussion and activities related to the themes in the book.

The Clipper Literacy Leaders, which kicked off during the 2023-2024 school year, aims to create connections between high school and younger students and promote literacy and a love of reading. Each month, the Leaders visit a district school to read books that tie into the district’s social and emotional learning curriculum and connect with cultural/identity celebrations.
