Ready, Set, READ!
First-grade students across the district celebrated a fantastic 24th annual Wyoming Reads Day!
John Jorgensen established the Sue Jorgensen Library Foundation in 1996 and founded the Casper Cares, Casper Reads festival to honor his late wife’s commitment to children and reading. The celebration was expanded statewide as Wyoming Reads in 2006.
“Sue was always very dedicated to children and to literacy,” says John. “She believed that literacy was the foundation for everything in life.” That vision continues to fuel this community literacy initiative.
A special THANK YOU to NCSD Food Service and Transportation Departments, Woods Learning Center students, NCHS Theatre students, guest readers, and all other volunteers who partner with Wyoming Reads each year to ensure all students have a terrific time!
At NCSD, we are committed to empowering every learner to grow, excel, and be a successful contributor to the global and local community. We are incredibly fortunate to have the terrific students, staff, school families, and community members who go above and beyond every day, in and out of the classroom, to ensure excellence in Natrona County.
