In honor of April being National Poetry Month, students and staff at Rushmore Avenue School celebrated Poem in Your Pocket Day on April 27. Everyone was asked to either locate a poem or write their own and carry it around in their pocket all day. People were encouraged to stop students and staff throughout the day to share their poems with each other. In addition, students who had library class that day participated in a poetry “slam,” where they read their poems or recited them by memory. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the beauty of poetry!
