About:
On Jan. 14, Chatterton Elementary School kicked off its annual Pick a Reading Partner, or PARP, event. Second graders in Lindsay Struss’ class took this year’s theme of “reading is our superpower,” to heart when they chose to thank some every day superheroes in the Merrick community. As a class, the students wrote letters to local nurses, thanking them for their hard work during a very difficult time. “it was such a beautiful moment,” Ms. Struss said.
