Football Players Share the Importance of Reading
|
This week our preschool and elementary students  enjoyed "Story Time" presented by our Eagle Football Team. Each class was visited by a player who read the class a story.
One of our preschool parents had this to say about this special time between the players and students -
 " I just dropped my daughter, Reagan, off to Mrs. Tharpe's class. To my surprise, two big hulking football players were sitting and reading to a bunch of tiny wide-eyed 3 year olds! This is the sweetest, cutest thing EVER!!! Such a great thing to  have them do. I LOVE THIS SCHOOL!!!! Thank you all for making this an awesome experience for our daughter."
