Jim Allen Elementary Students Receive Free Dictionaries

October 25, 2018

About 400 students at Jim Allen Elementary School have new dictionaries today, thanks to the national Dictionary Project.

The dictionaries were presented by members of St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church in Cantonment.

The goal of The Dictionary Project is to assist all students in becoming good writers, active readers, creative thinkers, and resourceful learners by providing them with their own personal dictionary.

    How wonderful for these children! They will be great students if they just read the book for fun. I love dictionaries though my comment spelling is never the best because I write in a hurry .
