🌟 A huge THANK YOU to our friends at Biogen for making a big impact during their Caring Deeply Week of Service! Their team members rolled up their sleeves at #Tools4Schools—sorting thousands of LEGOs into creative learning kits for classrooms and assembling hundreds of hygiene kits for students in need. Your caring spirit is helping Wake County Public School System teachers and students thrive. 💙🍎 #CaringDeeply #WakeEd (fb)

We had the best morning at two wonderful Wake County Public School System schools — Hodge Road Spanish Dual Language Immersion Magnet Elementary and Forestville Elementary School — as part of our new Partners Read + The Brown Bookshelf Fall Author Tour! 📚✨ Children’s book author Tameka Fryer Brown captivated more than 100 first graders at each school, reading from her latest book "All the Greatness in You" as well as "Twelve Dinging Doorbells". Every student received their very own copy to take home, and each school’s library was gifted with additional books. The students lit up as Tameka shared not only her stories, but also her own journey into writing children’s books as a young mother. She encouraged the students to imagine themselves as authors and illustrators too. 💡✍🏾 This inspiring author tour highlighting Black children’s book authors continues in October with Tracey Baptiste and Kelly Starling Lyons. Stay tuned — more inspiration to come! #WakeEd #PartnersRead #TheBrownBookshelf #AllTheGreatnessInYou #WCPSS (fb)
