Hopkins Parents and Grandparents: Do you have a spare 30 minutes one to four times per month? Many of our classes are in need of readers for the Read Aloud Program. This program encourages parents, grandparents, seniors and others to come into a classroom and read stories to the class. Being read to has been proven to be beneficial for all kids (and for those who read to them)! All that is involved is about 10 minutes picking out a book or books in the school library and about 20 minutes of reading time. If you are interested in reading for any of the following classes, please contact Michele Craig (Hopkins mom and Read Aloud Coordinator) at 303-797-6393.

Class reading days/times for those classes needing volunteers are as follows:
Skarwecki - Fri. - 11:15 - 11:45 a.m.
Wilson - Fri. - 9:00 a.m.
Hermanson - Tues./Thurs. - 2:40 - 3:00 p.m.
Lonie - Weds./Thurs. - 11:30 a.m. - 12:20 p.m.
Polette - Mon./Weds. - 11:30 a.m.
Cardenas - Fri. - 2:40 p.m.

Thank you to all of you who already volunteer your time at our school! For those of you who would like to take an active part in your child's school experience, this is an easy and enjoyable way to do it!
