Buckeyeman and "Jim Tressel" (look-alike) Support HSA Readers

Throughout March, students at Horizon Science Academy- Dayton Elementary will be enjoying special guest readers as part of a month-long reading extravaganza in honor of National Right to Read.

Guest readers planned included members of the Dayton Demonz Hockey team, Jim Bucher- TV Guy, Buckeyman and Jim Tressel Look-alike, and members of the Victoria Theater. The month-long event is designed to highlight the importance of teaching strong reading skills and the value of reading to children. Students will spend the month reading a variety of books that touch upon different aspects of their curriculum with a special focus on author studies. The month will culminate in a special Dr. Seuss event to celebrate the birthday of one of this most loved authors of children's books.

Today, HSA-DE was visited by Larry Buckeyeman Lokai and a Jim Tressel look-alike. Buckeyeman and Jim read Buckeyes A-Z by Mark Walter to students throughout the building. Each student was presented a gift of a genuine buckeye along with a card explaining what a buckeye was.  Each teacher was presented an OSU Buckeye necklace.  We were very excited to host these very special visitors to our building and the students listed very intently to learn more about the OSU Buckeyes than they had ever known before.
