Dr. Seuss’ Day Honored by Swartz Upper Students
OPSB News Third grade students from Mrs. Jana Wilson’s and Mrs. Amy Sikes’ classes recently celebrated Dr. Seuss Day by sending their students to read to classes at Swartz Lower. Our third graders were thrilled to share their reading skills while the little ones gained literary appreciation. As Dr. Seuss expressed it, “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself, any direction you choose.” Both schools implement such words of wisdom and -yes!- we love Dr. Seuss’ timeless books!
