Teachers at Arrowhead Elementary School were recently given the opportunity to get together and learn more about the Virginia Beach Reading Council (VBRC). Arrowhead Elementary’s Reading Resource Teacher Silvia Babcock and Library Media Specialist Kellee Kraft set up a “relaxation station” where snacks and door prizes were offered.

Many teachers showed their support for literacy in our schools by joining the VBRC and/or contributing to their “Catch ‘Em in the Cradle” program, which provides all newborns at Princess Anne Hospital with a new book.
