We hope there aren't any other mistakes, but if you notice an error, please let us know.

Literacy Volunteer Orientation
YOU can help students learn to read.

Register for the next Literacy Volunteer Orientation which will be held from 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 16 by contacting Vicki Newhard at
484-765-4121 or NewhardV@allentownsd.org

Volunteers visit the same classroom weekly to work with individual students or small groups as directed by the classroom teacher. We have a need for volunteers in kindergarten and first grade classrooms in all buildings.

Latin Dance Competition
Over 70 students from our four middle schools have been taking weekly Latin Dance lessons since early September. On November 16 they will perform the Salsa and Merengue for friends, family and a panel of judges.

We thank our program sponsors: Highmark and Iron Pigs Charities.
On Friday, October 14 the author of the first dual-language book written and illustrated as part of our I Am On A Bookshelf program read his book to Allentown Mayor Matt Tuerk. This was part of Lehigh Parkway's celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.
