Warrior Elementary School principal Mike Frugoli and library media specialist Andrea Pedigo presented awards recently for November Family Reading Month, sponsored by the Jefferson County Board of Education and the Library Media Services Department.

The school provided awards for the top three readers in each classroom, with the top reader in grades K-2 getting a trophy.

Students in grades 3-12 were encouraged to take part in the Young Authors’ Showcase, where they were to write an original ending to a book they read during the month.

The theme for the event was “Reading is a Family Affair.”
