Stevenson's Mission Statement

Attention Students!
Celebrate Reading and Writing is

What’s new and exciting at Stevenson School for our kindergarten students this winter? The principal, Leslie Eskildsen, is making a visit, in robe and slippers, to the home of each of the kindergarten students to read aloud a new book! Ms. Eskildsen will be modeling effective read aloud strategies for parents, and engaging the kindergartners in the new stories. At the end of each visit, the principal will “gift” the child the book to keep so he or she can reread it with the family over and over again. When the kindergartner returns to school after the principal visit, another copy of his/her book will be available in the classroom. This surprise will allow each student to read and reread the book to the class. The many opportunities for rereading a story reinforces the development of good reading strategies for our early readers. This project was made possible through the awarding of a $500 Schaumburg Township Elementary Foundation mini-grant.
Guess Who’s Coming to Read to Me?
