Manlius Pebble Hill School is excited to announce a free viewing of "The Right to Read” on Wednesday, May 24 at 6:30 p.m. at Le Moyne College. This is a film by Jenny Mackenzie and executive produced by LeVar Burton (of "Reading Rainbow" fame).
"The Right to Read" shares the stories of a courageous Oakland NAACP activist, Kareem Weaver, a teacher, Sabrina Causey, and two American families who are all advocating for science-based reading instruction nationwide. At MPH, we are passionate about literacy instruction that aligns with the Science of Reading and all of our K-5 students are instructed according to this method. We’re thrilled to be hosting this event for the CNY community to bring attention to the critical importance of science-based reading instruction.
There are two options for film viewing: In Person Screening on 5/24:
In-person at the Le Moyne College Campus Center, James Commons (first floor). Doors open at 6 p.m. Film will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be followed at by a panel discussion featuring Dr. Maria Murray, Dr. Sheila Clonan, NY Assemblymember Robert Carroll, and Attorney Patrick Radel.
