Nelson Reads - One Book, One Community - 2017 - 2018
For the second year, Rockfish River Elementary School and Tye River Elementary School were invited to participate in the Nelson Reads - One Book, One Community program by Mrs. Susan Huffman, librarian at the Nelson Memorial Library. Each school is provided with 14 books for the students to read and eventually vote on to pick their favorite story of all of them. The art teachers will continue the program with various projects related to the books.
To make the books more accessible to all of the students, Mrs. Johnson (RRES) and Mrs. Thompson (TRES) have recorded book videos for everyone to enjoy again and again! Enjoy!
