Kids Read Now Books Are Here!
January 19, 2024
Carlsbad Municipal Schools are pleased to announce that our students have begun to receive books from Kids Read Now, a literacy program tailored for elementary learners. The books, personally selected by the students, have started to arrive in their mailboxes over the holiday break.
Each student from kindergarten through 5th grade will be gifted 20 books to add to their home library this year. This initiative not only offers an engaging indoor activity during the colder months but also underscores the importance of reading in fostering children's development and academic success.

Teachers Help Select Books at School
February 28, 2024Students select books in class at Monterrey Elementary with the help of their teacher. Studies show children are 3 times as likely to read books they choose.
Choice boosts attention and interest. When students are presented with the opportunity to make their own decisions, to choose stories or non-fiction topics they're interested in, then we are off to a good start.
Because, here's the thing, when children get to exercise choice, they've effectively cast their vote. They've now mentally claimed each book as their own.
