The Third Annual Selma Unified School District Young Authors' Faire was a great success. Many students from SUSD elementary schools and junior high school participated in this great literacy event. At the event young authors were interviewed about their writing by SUSD staff. The students participated in many fun literacy activities including: a book walk, making a literacy bumper sticker, building a story, watching a puppet show, and meeting the student authors. Many books were given away as prizes.
Thank you to the organizers of this terrific event, Mrs. Petropulos, District Library Media Coordinator and Mrs. Padron-Duarte, BTSA Coordinator. We appreciate all of the volunteers who helped make this event a great success. Thank you for all the help from SUSD Superintendent, Mrs. Wood; Board Member, Mrs. Winter; SUSD Library Technicians; Literacy and Math Coaches; and SUSD Auxiliary Teaching Staff. A special thank you to our own SUSD author of Out of the Shadows, Mrs. Nina Perez-Reed for spending time with students and signing her book.
All students who were awarded 1st and 2nd place will move on to the Fresno County Office of Education Young Authors' Faire. The SUSD Young Authors' Faire Winners are:
