On Tuesday November 15th, L.O.V.E. team members from Forest Heights, Hall, Henderson, JA Fair and McClellan participated in the  Annual ViPS Reading Day at Baseline Elementary. Twenty-three (23) L.O.V.E. team members and sponsors read to over three hundred seventy-five (375) students in grades Kindergarten through 5th grade. The L.O.V.E. to Read Initiative was a collaborative effort between the L.O.V.E. program and the LRSD Volunteer In Public Schools (ViPS) in conjunction with the LRSD Office of Dropout Prevention. The goal of the initiative was to promote literacy at the elementary level, while emphasizing how important reading is to their success in school and beyond. L.O.V.E. team members also encouraged students at Baseline to become avid readers and to exercise their reading skills daily.
