New River Primary celebrated National Read-Across America Day by celebrating Dr. Seuss Week with a week full of fun, but educational activities. Students from Oak Hill High School came to read different Dr. Seuss books to our students. In Art class, students practiced drawing and coloring different Dr. Seuss characters. Throughout the week, students and staff dressed up to highlight different Dr. Seuss books, such as The Cat in The Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, Wacky Wednesday, The Lorax, and Dr. Seuss Sleep Book. New River Primary’s PTA also hosted their annual Dr. Seuss Night, which was another huge success. During this event, students and their loved ones were able to enjoy an evening of fun together through attending a Read-Aloud, completing arts and crafts, enjoyed face painting, and a drawing where students were able to take home a classic board game to play with their friends and families.
