Brock Bridge Elementary School participated in Read Across America Week (March 2-6). On Monday of that week, students and teachers celebrated Dr. Seuss's Birthday (March 2) by dressing like a Dr. Seuss character. On Red, White and Read Tuesday, students and teachers wore red and white shirts with words on them. On Wacky Wednesday, students wore a wacky, mismatched outfit to school. Then Thursday and Friday were snow days! The school resumed Read Across America on March 12 with Book Swap Thursday, when students swapped a book with a friend; and ended March 13 with Comfy Friday, when students dressed in their PJs and curled up with their favorite book.
