Volunteers were on hand at Warren City Schools to read to students during this year’s Read Across America Week.
This year’s theme for the national reading effort, held March 3-7, was “Explore New Worlds Through Reading”.
The effort was facilitated by the United Way of Trumbull County for students in grades K-3.
Leaders from the United Way of Trumbull County along with Warren City officials, community members and business representative spent time in classrooms reading to students.
This year’s book selection was “Mae Among the Stars” written by Roda Ahmed and illustrated by Stasia Burrington.
The book tells the story of Mae Jemison and her goal to become as astronaut.
