Read and Lead
(Postponed)
Implemented through Key Club International at the Morristown & Morris Township Library
Read and Lead is a nationally based organization that promotes student leadership in the community. The program is
designed to end the cycle of illiteracy in the US by demonstating the joys of reading to elementary school children by high
school volunteers who read to or are read to by their younger "reading friends."
The Program is for students in Kindergarten through 5th grade, but all young readers are welcome.
It will be held in the Children's Room of the Morristown & Morris Township Library
Wednesdays from 4-6 PM beginning March 10, 2010 and running through the end of June.
Bring your own book or choose one from our recommended selections.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Please Note: This is not a drop off program
