St. Brigid CES in Stouffville has always emphasized the importance of literacy, and in the coming months, local community members will help students grow a love of reading.
These special guests, from various careers, backgrounds and interests, will model that reading is an exciting way for all students to explore new ideas, enjoy a story and just have fun.
