We have been inspired by the engagement and anti-racism activism of young people to try an exciting new system that pairs a high school student reader with one of our experienced readers.There will be a workshop/training on Saturday, February 4 at Jaquith Public Library in Marshfield, Vermont, from 1-3 PM. We will show what RER does and how it does it and create pairs to work together in upcoming readings, our first since the pandemic began!
We will be going into two schools in a small way this school year, and are hoping to read at Twinfield (Plainfield/Marshfield) in March and Cabot in April.
