Beacons' L.I.T.'s Raise Money for Children's Reading Center

Sheridan Beacons' "Leaders In Training" are exemplifying the power and reach of youth voice. Given the social issue of illiteracy in children, the 7th & 8th graders envisioned creating a reading center within the Beacons' Office. The Reading Center will be an exciting, comfortable place for the Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade students to be tutored by older students as well as to read leisurely. They have raised over $100 thus far, and they have a "pizza night" at the Brooklyn Park Davanni's on March 10th. Please go and support this student led endeavor to fight children's illiteracy within their own school.
