US Marines Visit NWS Promoting the Love of Literacy


A dedicated U.S. Marines visited New Windsor School as part of a community outreach program promoting literacy among young students.

The Marines engaged each scholar by reading captivating stories, aiming to foster a love for reading that can last a lifetime. During their visit, they shared anecdotes about their favorite childhood books, emphasizing how these stories sparked their imaginations and shaped their understanding of the world. The Marines led discussions with the students about the importance of reading in their daily lives, illustrating how literacy has helped them gain insights into diverse cultures, traditions, and various interesting facts that enrich their experiences. They highlighted practical skills that reading has provided them, showcasing its relevance in their personal journeys and professional careers within the military.
 
The interactive session allowed students to ask many questions, ranging from queries about the Marines' experiences and their roles in the military to how reading has influenced their lives. This exchange created a dynamic atmosphere that left a lasting impact on the children, inspiring them to consider reading a valuable tool for learning and growth.
