Rosarian Celebrates Dr. Seuss’s Birthday

In celebration of Read Across America Day and what would have been Dr. Seuss’s 112th birthday, Rosarian Academy Director of Lower School Theresa Kent recently read Green Eggs and Ham to Rosarian kindergarten students in the media center.

Dressed as The Cat in the Hat, religion teacher Francesca Coniglio Finck surprised the children with a special appearance and entertained them as she climbed up on tables and stealthily moved around Kent. Following the story, the kindergartners enjoyed eating green eggs and ham cooked by parent volunteers.

Read Across America Day is a nationwide reading celebration that takes place annually on March 2.

Across the country, thousands of schools, libraries, and community centers participate in bringing together kids and books.
