Today at 11:11 a.m. students throughout Dallas ISD spent 11 minutes of their day reading books, magazines, or other printed publications. Voluteers from all over the city joined this community wide celebration.
We were delighted to have Diane Stephenson, Area Development Director for the UNCF read to our class. She read Mrs. Edley's all-time favorite; Anansi and the Moss-Covered Rock by Eric A. Kimmel. The children were delighted to have her read to them. She emphasized that reading would prepare them for them from greater successes in their lives.
"A mind is a terrible thing to waste."
