McDougle Elementary School African-American Read-In and STEAM Career Symposium
We are excited to invite you to participate in McDougle Elementary School’s African-American Read-In and STEAM Career Symposium Showcase on Monday, February 16th! This meaningful, full-day celebration will highlight the brilliance, voices, and contributions of African Americans in both literature and STEAM fields.
This year’s event includes several special opportunities for our community:
1. STEAM Career Presenters (Grades 3–5)
We are seeking local African-American professionals working in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics to share their stories and inspire our upper-grade learners. Presenters may give short talks, lead demonstrations, or host hands-on mini-sessions related to their field.
2. Guest Readers (Grades K–5)
We welcome African-American parents, caregivers, family members, and community leaders to serve as guest readers in classrooms throughout the day. You may bring a favorite children’s book or choose one from our school’s collection.
3. African-American/Multicultural Book Fair – Feb. 16–20
We are also excited to host an African-American/Multicultural Book Fair from February 16–20. This extended event will feature books that celebrate African-American authors, illustrators, stories, and rich multicultural voices from around the world. Students and families will have opportunities to browse and shop throughout the week.
Your participation helps our students see themselves in the pages they read and in the careers they dream of pursuing. We would be honored to have you join us.
