Students at St. Mary\/St. Michael School in Derby<\/p><\/div>\n

Rotarians have returned to the classroom over the last month to read and donate books to Kindergarten and grades 1, 2 and 3 in Derby Shelton. This is the Club’s annual participation in the Read Across America effort. Though the official day for the event was March 2 this year, Club members spread the duties over several weeks in getting to so many classrooms in Derby and Shelton. The national date for the event comes from the birthdate of Theodor Seuss Geisel, the author of the Dr. Seuss books. Kim Caro coordinate the program and selected the books that Rotarians read to the classes and then left behind for the libraries in each of the schools.<\/p>\n

Rotarians who read this year included:<\/p>\n

Pat Tarasaovic – Irving School<\/p>\n

Ernie Luise – Holy Trinity<\/p>\n

Phoebe Gonzales and Rosemary Allen – Mohegan School<\/p>\n

Lorraine Inzerra\u00a0 and Kim Caro – Booth Hill School<\/p>\n

Mike Wynne – Sunnyside School<\/p>\n

Jack Walsh – St. Mary\/St. Michael School<\/p>\n

Matt McGee and Linda Holmes-Hannon – Bradley School<\/p>\n
