Taylor Parks celebrates literacy

Family Literacy Night is scheduled for Thursday, March 21, at Taylor Parks Elementary School.

Dr. Mary Bigler ("Raising Readers") will be on hand for the presentation, which will begin at 6 p.m. and is aimed at kindergarten through fifth-grade pupils.

Bigler is an internationally known literacy expert and author. She offers a humorous approach to teaching today's children how to love reading and writing.

Last Thursday, Taylor Parks celebrated "Grandparents Day." Kindergarten and first-grade pupils spent a half-day with their grandparent(s). According to school officials, the turnout for the special event was very impressive. Grandparents toured  the building, had snacks with the pupils and participated in a classroom project. They also had their photos taken with their grandchild.
