Mr. Cox from Wells Fargo came to Miss Nelson's second grade class last Wednesday to read to and deliver books to their class.  The program is called "Reading First" which is a partnership between Wells Fargo, Desert Arc, and Scholastic, Inc. 

Not only did the students receive new books, they were able to hear some of the selections from  a student's dad.  They all had a great time, and were laughing at what was read.  Reading opens the doors to thought and imagination.  What a wonderful thing to have businesses who recognize the need for literacy in our lives.

Thank you Mr. Cox!
