The Robbins Lane Elementary School PTA recently held its annual Community Reader Day. It was part of an exciting two week PARP (Pick A Reading Partner) event. Community Reader Day helps to reinforce a love of reading by having community members explain their role in the community and demonstrate their own love of reading. It was a wonderful day for Robbins Lane students to meet various community members and see them model a lifelong love of reading. Each community reader day guest visited with a class and read a story. According to Jennifer Hatz, Community Reader Day chairperson, this day is a favorite for both the students as well as the guest readers. Community readers included a veterinarian, a police officer, a postal worker, a magician, some local business owners, various Syosset School District administrators and the superintendent of the Syosset School District.
