One District, One Book Starts Feb. 6
Because of the school closures, D91's One District, One Book, our districtwide book club, is being rescheduled for Feb. 6-24. Elementary schools will hold kick-off assemblies next week and then the youngest elementary school child in every family will bring home a copy of this year's title along with a reading calendar. If you can't read together, check out our ODOB page for audio recordings you can listen to on the go. We'll also post the daily trivia questions, and the answers to the previous day's question. Research shows reading aloud together for just 15 minutes a day improves reading skills so let's read together and create a community of readers!
