Primrose Students Donate 248 Books to MUST Ministries
Preschoolers Give Books to Children in Need After Celebrating With 45 Million Readers Nationwide

[Holly Springs, GA] [March 2] – Preschoolers at the Primrose School of Harmony on the Lakes helped provide books for local children in need in honor of Read Across America Day this month.
“Our philosophy and literacy goals at Primrose directly align with Read Across America Day, and it was truly a great day for the community and the entire country to establish a regular reading routine, promote early childhood education and celebrate the power of literacy together,” said Sharon Shelton, franchise owner.
The book donation drive is a part of Og’s Bountiful Books, a Primrose reading program designed to encourage parents to read to their children at home and send in favorite books to school to share with their classmates and those in need. “Og” is the official Primrose school bookworm – as well as one of the school’s character development mascots. The Og’s Bountiful Books program is a key part of the Balanced Learning® system, which balances academics, play and character development.
