One Book, One Community... Choose Kind

This year, RRISD is participating in a special program called "One Book, One Community."  Part of the HEB grant, Education Award for Excellence, was used to purchase several copies of the book "Wonder" for each campus.
Union Hill Received 77 Copies

Union Hill students in grades 3-5, are all encouraged to read the book this year!  All of the books were handed out to students yesterday.  These students got their name drawn by the principals for showing respect for other students!



We are also promoting "Read it Forward."  When these students finish reading their copy of Wonder, they were asked to sign the inside cover, and pass it to a friend.

Have you read the book yet?  If not, you need to!  Here's a short book trailer for it.
