They’re the group that really makes the grade when it comes to literacy.
Newswatch 16's Ryan Leckey teamed up with members of the Keystone State Literacy Association Northeast PA. The group is made up of currently working and retired educators.
Ryan highlighted the organization's goals to "make literacy accessible for all" in our area and spotlighted several of the group's upcoming events.
One free event is this Saturday in Scranton. It involves "Reading Time At The Marketplace" at Steamtown in Scranton. It takes place from 10:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. inside the "Stories" location on the second floor.
The event features guest readers. CLICK HERE for the free book coupon mentioned on Newswatch 16 This Morning.
Another event the Keystone State Literacy Association of Northeast PA hosts is later this month on October 15. It is part of “Young Authors’ and Illustrators’ Day” at the University of Scranton. The event requires pre-registration for students in grades three through 12.
