Jumpstart’s Read for the Record:
Millions of children in low-income neighborhoods are at risk of
school failure before they even start kindergarten. Jumpstart’s
Read for the Record®, presented in partnership with the Pearson
Foundation, allows Americans to demand that all children receive the
quality early education they deserve.
On October 6, 2011, more than 2 million voices will call for an end to
America’s early education achievement gap by reading Llama Llama Red
Pajama by Anna Dewdney – setting a world record in the process!
Each year, staff and students at Levelland Academic Beginnings Center get “counted” toward a new world record! Today, Superintendent, Mark Holcomb, was on hand to start the reading of Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney. Teachers then continued reading the book to the students. There were 532 participants at LABC.
With funds from the fall book fair, Cindy Pope, the librarian, was able to purchase all kindergarten students a copy of the book to take home and enjoy. SPCAA Head Start—as a part of their Reading Connection project—purchased the books for the prekindergarten students to take home as well.
