We are looking for students who would want to hop on a Google Meet from Mrs. Carpenter’s office and read a book to the BHES students on our Read Across America Day (March 4th). If you are interested in doing this, shoot Mrs. Carpenter an email (acarpenter@bismarck.k12.il.us) ASAP and let her know what time(s) you are available that day. She has books you can choose from, or you can bring your own favorite picture book to read. It should take about 10-15 minutes, depending on the book. Thanks!
