Caught Reading, Across the Whole School . . .

Going strong since Fall 2012, and now faculty and staff across the school are participating in the "What I'm Reading Now"  displays of their current reading choices.  The incredible variety continues to amaze me -- fiction and non-fiction, current bestsellers and backlist classics.  It's extremely rare that any two people are reading the same book at the same time.

One fun thing is that our Admissions staff routinely points out the displays as they lead tours around campus.  No doubt about it, at Paideia, Reading Rocks!

Here's a roundup of current reads from elementary, junior high, and high school teachers and administrators.

What We're Reading

	This is me.	Eddy's pups Pepe & Paco enjoy read-aloud time when it's about chihuahuas.
Some folks get to play twice . . .	What Stacey's reading,	and the book she's reading with son Winston.

And here's a list of other titles read by faculty and staff since the beginning of the school year. It's clear -- there's a whole lot of reading going on!
