Community Book Chats!

Join us this October for the first-ever #PembertonReads Community Book Chat, an exciting opportunity to come together as a school and community around a powerful shared read: How Children Succeed by Paul Tough. This bestselling book explores how grit, curiosity, and character—not just academics—play a critical role in helping children thrive. What makes this event truly special? The conversations will be led by students from Helen Fort Middle School, giving our young scholars a chance to shine and guide meaningful dialogue. Register today by scanning the QR code on the flyer or by visiting this link—more details will be shared in mid-September. Whether you’re a parent, educator, student, or community member, we invite you to be part of this inspiring journey as we read, reflect, and grow together.
