Celebrity Readers Come to Kimmel Farm Elementary


This comes to us from Denise W. McCoy, the Parent Involvement Coordinator at Kimmel Farm Elementary:

On March 1, 32 people from the community came to Kimmel Farm Elementary to read to students.

Students heard about the importance of reading and the importance of education from a diverse group of people, said Denise W. McCoy, the Parent Involvement Coordinator at Kimmel Farm Elementary.

“Guests took the time from their busy schedules to stress this and have some fun.”

Readers included a judge, the Clerk of Court, a professor at Winston-Salem State University, a police officer, business people, parents, grandparents, Kenneth Simington, who is serving as interim superintendent for Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools, and Instructional Superintendent Rusty Hall.

Assistant Principal Malinda Kerns and McCoy organized the event. 

Guests read from 9 a.m. until 2:30 p.m.

“No one called to cancel on a pouring rainy day....,” McCoy said.
