Charter Day School Kindergarten students proudly show off their “I Can Read” certificates. Kindergarten students received the certificates and their own book as part of an “I Can Read” ceremony celebrating their landmark achievement of learning to read. The ceremony also included students reading their new books before a packed audience of family members.

Headmaster Laurie Benton commented, “Learning to read is a tremendous and vital accomplishment. It paves the way for future success. We are so proud of our Kindergarten students for achieving this milestone!”
