My Project

March is Reading Month and our theme for this year is “Wild About Reading!”. We will have several events throughout the month, including a family night. I would love to have a unique photo opportunity for our scholars during this event. The new Demco catalog has this inspiring wall decal, and it’s perfect!

This Books Give You Wings wall cling will invite scholars, staff, and guests into our space and encourage them to read.

It is one of the decals that students can stand in front of, and it looks like they have wings! The wings are made of colorful books. Students and families can also stand in front of it and have their pictures taken at events such as Open House, Conferences, Reading Night, and Back to School Night, making more memories!
