We found out a couple of weeks ago that Parker won the Reading Bee for Gerard. The Reading Bee is a reading competition for second graders that evaluates them on their reading accuracy, speed, and comprehension.
Because he was the Gerard champion, he was able to move on to the district competition last Tuesday. I took the day off so I could go with him and Cory was able to come for the award ceremony at the end.
There were 7 students competing at the district level- one from each elementary school in town.
Parker did not win the district Reading Bee but we were so proud of him for representing our school. He is a great reader and has developed a love for reading that I hope lasts the rest of his life!
