Thank you to all of our students, families, and staff for an exciting and inspiring Character Day on Friday, April 12th. There were many students and teachers dressed as their favorite characters. Our day included a Character Parade, several Mystery Reader classroom visits and an all school assembly celebrating Reading and Writing. This year’s assembly included an incredible drumming performance by grades 3 & 4, Poetry, Book Buzzes, Singing, and a Crowd Favorite: The Masked Teacher. Several Teachers dressed up in inflatable character costumes to surprise the crowd, it was a blast!
At Haggerty, We believe that Literacy is Liberating. We teach children to become lifelong readers, to think critically about what they read and to use the power of Writing to advocate for Social Change. We hope Character Day encouraged students and teachers to try a new book or new author.
