"The Bear Ate Your Sandwich"

On Thursday, October 27, we participated in Jumpstart's Read for the Record, a national campaign that was launched over a decade ago to address the educational inequities that leave too many children unprepared for kindergarten. This year our volunteer Marybeth read the book, "The Bear Ate Your Sandwich" by Julia Sarcone-Roach, as part of the world’s largest shared reading experience. The K-prep classroom took the campaign a step further by preparing their own tea sandwiches and making bear ears.
