Mayor to visit elementary school as part of reading project

Mayor Tyrone Garner is scheduled to visit Grant Elementary School on Wednesday morning, April 20, to read to students.

The Breakfast and Books program aims to provide an opportunity for kindergarten through second grade students to engage with positive role models in the community, from all types of career fields.

The adults may build positive relationships with students over breakfast while serving as role models who believe reading is fun and engaging.

Moses Wyatt Jr., who is active with the Breakfast and Books program with the Jegna Klub, stated that they want to be the change they wish to see in the community. Children do what they see adults doing confidently, he added. Wyatt, founder of the Jegna Klub, has many years of experience as a teacher and coach.
