During this #NationalReadingMonth, Raisin Township Police Chief Kevin Grayer stopped by Sutton Early Learning Center today.

March is Reading Month in Michigan.
Today, Board of Education secretary Mary Tommelein stopped by Sutton Early Learning Center to read to students. She read a special story about St. Patrick's Day, which is next Friday.
Throughout the month of March, people of all ages are encouraged to promote the importance of reading, and parents are asked to explore the fun of reading with their children.
With your student's safety in mind, we are adjusting the academic schedule for Friday, March 3.
This is in anticipation of expected hazardous driving conditions tomorrow afternoon.
Tecumseh High School and Tecumseh Middle School will be moving to a half-day schedule for Friday. The ELCs and ILCs are already scheduled for a half-day. That will remain the same.
There will be no PM Tech Center.
Thank you!
