Parents

Reading is one of the most important skills your child will learn in school. Like all skills, improvement comes with practice, and the Bradford Elementary School Library provides a wide variety of books for students to borrow for reading practice, information, and enjoyment. Your student’s class will visit the school library weekly to select books. You can help your student by reading to or with him/her and asking questions about the story. Encourage your child to spend time reading at home every day.
