\u00a0Connecticut loves to read and Derby-Shelton Rotarians are doing their bit to make sure that it continues. As they do every year, Rotarians visited schools to read to students in kindergarten through grade 3 during April. They brought along books to read to the students and leave behind for the schools’ libraries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a list of the schools and the Rotarians who did the reading:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booth Hill School – Liza Gambino and Kim Ryan-Caro<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Irving School – Pat Tarasovic, Joe & JoAnn Shapiro<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth Shelton School – Gary Scarpa<\/p>\n\n\n\n
