During Read Across America Week, schools across the School District of Lancaster celebrate the power of reading and the many ways literacy can bring people together.
At Wickersham Elementary School, that celebration extended beyond the classroom walls as families gathered for a recent Literacy Night designed to highlight the joy of reading while encouraging students and families to create stories of their own.
The event welcomed Wickersham families into the school for an evening focused on reading and writing. The goal was to create an interactive experience where literacy could be shared between students and their families while demonstrating how books can inspire creativity and storytelling at home.
A special highlight of the evening was a guest reading from Lancaster Mayor Jaime Arroyo, who joined students and families to read the children’s book I Like Myself.
Through shared stories, collaborative writing, and a celebration of their school community, Wickersham families experienced firsthand how literacy can strengthen connections and inspire learning that continues far beyond the classroom.
Welcome to Wickersham Elementary – Home of the Wildcats! Our school community is focused on positive student outcomes by building meaningful relationships and empowering collaboration amongst all stakeholders to ensure equitable opportunities for all students to reach their full potential. By promoting literacy of all subjects, active citizenship and tolerance, we are preparing students to become effective members in a growing global society. We are building the future leaders of tomorrow!
