Tuesday night’s Literacy Night was a huge success!  Roosevelt students at all grade levels came to the cafeteria in their pajamas to hear Roosevelt librarian Paulette Elliott read one of her favorite books.  Then the students were given the opportunity to hear books read aloud by local heroes in classrooms around the campus.  The evening ended with the students picking out a book to bring home, a cookie and a goody bag!
