Members of the local community recently surprised Manhasset students in grades K-4 at Shelter Rock and Munsey Park elementary schools as part of their “Guess Who’s Coming to Read” celebrations. Sponsored by the Manhasset School Community Association, the annual program emphasizes the importance of literacy and imagination.
As per tradition, the identities of the readers are unknown to the students until the readers walk in the door, making this highly anticipated event even more fun and exciting. Guest readers ranged from doctors to local politicians, sharing their passion for reading with the students. They read a book to their respective class and spoke about their profession. Students asked questions and were able to learn more about the hardworking people in the community.
The Manhasset Public Schools extends a special thank you to the Manhasset SCA for organizing a great event at both elementary schools.
