San Jose Elementary is excited to announce the upcoming Real Men Read event, taking place on Tuesday, November 26th, from 8:45 AM to 10:15 AM, with an optional lunch from 10:15 AM to 10:45 AM. This event is designed specifically for men in our community to engage with our students and promote the importance of reading.
Reading is a vital skill that lays the foundation for lifelong learning. Studies show that children who develop a love for reading are more likely to succeed academically and socially. The Real Men Read event provides a unique opportunity for male role models to inspire our students and demonstrate the joy and value of reading.
During the event, volunteers will read a children’s book to three different classrooms, sparking students' imaginations and fostering a deeper appreciation for literature. Your participation can make a significant impact, showing our students that reading is not only important but also enjoyable.
We invite fathers, grandfathers, uncles, and other male figures to volunteer for this special event. If you are interested in joining us, please RSVP by November 20, 2024. You can sign up by scanning the QR code or by following this link: https://dcps.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_29oHCdYPtWFxMb4
Together, let’s encourage our children to develop a lifelong love of reading. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at Real Men Read!
