Read Across America Day... On March 2 Councilmember Craig Rice read to Stephanie Speicher’s class of third grade students, at Lois P. Rockwell Elementary School in Damascus. "Truly an inspiring exchange of ideas" stated Councilmember Rice. A note from Ms. Speicher on behalf of her class totally expressed the experience…”We had a wonderful time and we really enjoyed having Councilmember Rice come in to read to us!  Right after he walked out the door, the class asked… When can he come back? We like him!” It was really cute. We had a blast and we loved how Councilmember Rice read the book, the students were so engaged. They loved acting out the pages and said they could really visualize everything!”
