  • Family Reading Night:
    On Thursday, March 1, Ann Smith Elementary hosted Family Reading Night to celebrate the birthday of Dr. Seuss and to encourage a love of reading among children. The event took on an “Around the World” theme to highlight the variety of countries represented at ASE. ASE students read passages of Dr. Seuss's The Foot Book in four languages, and then Mayor Gene McGee read the entire book in English. Participants enjoyed four different activity and literacy stations, and at the end of the night, each child got to select a book to take home from our February book drive. Be sure to check out the photos.
