LEAD2 Students Inspire Young Readers!
Ms. Smith’s LEAD2 classes at LMS celebrated Read Across America by reading to kindergarten and 1st-grade students!
This collaboration gave our older students the chance to mentor and be positive role models while sharing their love for reading. Watching the joy and excitement on the younger students’ faces reminds us of the power of literacy and the impact of student leadership.
