We recently welcomed author Dr. Rekha Rajan to the Primary and Intermediate Centers!
Dr. Rajan, author of the Disaster Squad series, Amazing Landmarks, and This Is Music, shared her love of reading with our students. At the Intermediate Center, she spoke to students about her Disaster Squad series, while our Primary Center students enjoyed a reading of Can You Dance Like a Peacock? — complete with dancing along! Dr. Rajan also took time to sign books for students, giving them a special keepsake to remember the visit.
🍎 A special thank-you to the Blazer Education Foundation for funding this author visit and helping bring exciting literary experiences to our Blazers!
