Families and students are invited to a virtual visit with the authors of "Where We Come From." The authors will read their book and share a Q&A session with the audience.
Join us for a celebration of family and community at a virtual visit with the authors of "Where We Come From." Signed copies of the book will be raffled off at the event. Our Summer Reading platform, Beanstack, sponsored this event and provided the books.

This program is part of our Community Read, a shared reading experience focused on the theme of “Where We Live.” Community Read includes book discussions, writing workshops, and art programs that foster the exchange of ideas and perspectives as we celebrate 150 years of service and community.
