Books! Crafts! Snacks! Miss Lisa and special guest star Sophia, a JRMS 8th grader and a story time alum, will lead this afternoon program where we'll read books, munch on snacks (goldfish crackers & allergy friendly granola bars), and do crafts!
Sophia's working on her 8th grade PIP (Personal Interest Project); for her project, she's coming back to recreate her favorite story times for a whole new generation of kids! Signup today to help Sophia make her project a tremendous success!
Children who sign up for this program can take the bus from RES to MTL; Miss Lisa will meet them when they get off the bus. Fill out the RES dismissal form and indicate they are going to this program at MTL.
