Book worms were out in force at Heartland Elementary School as students, teachers and staff celebrated “Read Across America Day.” Even the community got in on the fun with police officers, firefighters, West Jordan Mayor Dirk Burton, Principal Buddy Alger, District administrators and others reading to students in classroom after classroom. They read Dr. Seuss books like “The Cat in the Hat” and “Green Eggs and Ham.” Dr. Seuss once said “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”
Thanks to Heartland and all schools for inspiring students to read every day!
