My name is Carrie Rice and I’m an English teacher at Charles Henderson High School. I believe wholeheartedly in the power of reading and its ability to transform lives and communities. This fall, my students and I will join Project LIT Community to increase access to high-quality, culturally relevant books inside and outside of the classroom, and to promote a love of reading in Troy, Alabama. I have partnered with dedicated teachers and students in more than 50 schools around the country to ensure that all children become proficient, passionate readers who possess the literacy skills to choose their post-secondary path. This year, we plan to host monthly #CHHSReads Project LIT Book Clubs in our school in order to bring students, parents, and community members together to discuss and celebrate outstanding literature. We would love for you and the entire community to join us at these events! Additionally, throughout the year, our students will engage in meaningful service & project-based learning focused on literacy, which will allow them to gain critical 21st century skills while becoming better citizens, leaders and readers. Please let me know if you’d like to learn more about Project LIT Community and how you can support our work. Thanks, and happy reading!
