On Monday, February 7th, West will kick off a new literacy collaboration with SHS athletes and the 2nd & 7 Foundation. The mission of the 2nd and 7 Foundation is to promote reading by providing free books and positive role models to 2nd grade students while encouraging athletes of the community to pay it forward. This program allows our 2nd grade students to build their home libraries while getting a glimpse into the life of a high school athlete. We are excited about the opportunity, as this will be the first of several visits by our high school athletes.
