The Common Read Initiative is a reading/literacy and community building opportunity for students, teachers, administrators, and staff; as well as interested community members. During the summer, all participants will read a common book, or at least a series of themed books appropriate for the different age levels. On September 5, 2019, readers will engage in Common Read Celebration Day, which will include workshops, classes, discussions, and events centered on the Common Read books and their theme of Social Justice. Participation in the celebration is not contingent on reading one of the books.
Rationale:
Kickoff - last week of May, students will receive their book.
Check the pages for each book on this website for additional resources and activities. More content will be added over time.
Celebration - September 5 at CVU. (Students will be transported by bus from their schools.)
