ACS preschool and elementary students and teachers celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday on March 2 as part of Read Across America Day — a national campaign that focuses on motivating children to be lifelong readers.

One of Dr. Seuss’ books– “Wacky Wednesday” — was the inspiration for students and teachers to come to school dressed up in colorful, mismatched clothes, wigs, and hats, and with wacky hairdos.

Several parents and high school students visited various classrooms to read aloud favorite Dr. Seuss books. The school library had a large variety of Dr. Seuss books on display for students to check out. Kindergarten classes even enjoyed a special snack of green eggs and ham. It was all about making reading fun.
