National Read Across America Day
Celebrate the stories of Dr. Suess by wearing or bringing in something to represent his beloved stories.
Each year, National Read Across America Day is celebrated on March 3nd, the birthday of Dr. Seuss. The annual event is part of Read Across America, an initiative on reading created by the National Education Association. Since the event is designed to encourage reading in children and is fostered through the schools, when March 1nd lands on a weekend, the day is observed on the closest school day.

School Spirit Day Wear Green!!!!
Come and visit your child's classroom and see what they are working on this month.
A lot of people are wearing mismatched socks today, and it's a fashion choice with a purpose. It's meant to call attention to World Down Syndrome Day, which celebrates the lives of people with Down syndrome, raises awareness about the condition and highlights the role that people with Down syndrome play in their communities. In honor of the day, people around the world are sharing photos and videos of their mismatched socks using the hashtag #RockYourSocks.
The day is celebrated March 21 because the date symbolizes the 3 copies of the 21st chromosome, the genetic anomaly which leads to Down syndrome. Typically, the nucleus of each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, but an extra copy occurs in people with Down syndrome, altering the course of development.
