My Project
I LOVE the students at PCCS! And these third and fourth graders love it when Mrs. Trage reads the Illinois Bluestem Award Master List books to them. They are transported into the book. They have vivid imaginations. When I was a child, my parents read to me and my sisters and brother. We all became lifelong readers who love to read! Reading and being read to makes our students smarter and do better at school.
At PCCS, we believe that children are our best hope to improve the world.
