On Monday, Feb. 25, Robert F. Woodall Elementary School hosted 25 community, civic, political, and educational leaders to read to students in celebration of the 22^nd annual National Read Across America Week. 

Created by the National Education Association in 1997, The Read Across America Day is celebrated each year on the school day that falls closest to the birthday of Dr. Seuss, on March 2.

Schools throughout Robertson County celebrate this day, and the inclusive week, with events, activities, book fairs, and classroom readers held throughout the week.
