Students reading in Reading and Writing Redbird Club at Loudonville Library.

The Loudonville-Perrysville Exempted Village School District (LPEVSD) recently launched its new Reading and Writing Redbird Club. K-3 students are invited on the first Wednesday of each month, 3:15 - 4:15 p.m., to participate in literacy-based activities centered around a monthly theme. Activities include an interactive read-aloud, writing to connect with others, reading poetry, singing songs, journaling, playing games and, of course - snack time. 

"Our youngest Redbirds are set on a path of lifelong learning through their love for reading," expressed Superintendent Jennifer Allerding. "We are grateful to the Loudonville Public Library and McMullen Parent Association for their invaluable support in fostering literacy among our students!"

The club's first event was a huge success, totaling over 60 students in attendance. The next meeting is scheduled for March 6. The club will meet the first Wednesday of each month through May 2024. As the meeting date approaches, room numbers for student pick-up will be communicated to parents through Dojo messages.

Students/Parents may sign up through the library or by contacting Angela Layton, Literacy Coach, at anlayton@lpschools.net.
