Big Read Kickoff Tomorrow!

 



The Passages’ BIG Read kicks off January 14th! The book? Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You by Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi.  Students will have the opportunity to read together with one another, and all who choose to participate.  They will receive fresh assignments in their digital library classrooms each day through February 10th.  We invite parents, guardians, teachers, administrators, staff and members of the community at large to join us in fostering literacy through a shared read at every site where Passages’ students currently reside. 

Many thanks to the generous anonymous donors, The Hank Young Memorial Foundation, and Literacy for Incarcerated Teens for providing the critical funding to purchase the books for our entire student body, and to everyone at ACS and Passages who pitched in to ensure that a copy of the book made it to every student at every site.
