On 3 March 2015, members of FBLA traveled to Andrew Maier. Their mission was to read Dr. Seuss books to the elementary children. They also made crafts with them and assisted in completing worksheets.
“We had an officer meeting for FBLA, and Mrs. Ackerman asked us if we wanted to do something for ‘Dr. Seuss’s Read across America Day,’ and we decided that we wanted to,” junior FBLA member Amanda Meck said.
The twenty members who went on the trip were Chris Logar, Laura Kaskey, Julia Donohoe, Alicia Stitzel, FaithAnn Scanlan, Twinkle Malhotra, Cody Moser, Amanda Kaskey, Cassandra Harter, Brittany Tyson, Tara Wily, Kae Huang, Olivia Alison, Lexi Roach, Duncan Cahalan, Joe Kinek, Amanda Meck, Brandon Stitzel, Matt Leibman, and Gabe Kotsch.
“Ackerman had asked if one of us would contact one of the elementary schools, and I said I’d gladly contact Mr. Redding. He is the principal at Andrew Maier, which is why we went there,” Meck said.
The books they read were The Cat in the Hat, The Foot Book, There’s a Wocket in my Pocket, and Green Eggs and Ham.]
“I was in a kindergarten room, and we read The Cat in the Hat and then made a cat mask craft to go along with it! It was such a great time,” Meck said.
