Family Literacy Day
Family Literacy Day
Family Literacy Day takes place every January 27th to raise awareness about the importance of reading and engaging in other literacy-related activities as a family.
Since 1999, schools, libraries, literacy organizations and other community groups across the country have taken part in the initiative. ABC creates free learning and promotional resources for anyone that wants to get involved.
Taking time every day to read or do a learning activity with children is crucial to a child’s development, improving a child’s literacy skills dramatically, and can help a parent improve their skills as well.
Family Literacy Day 2026 Theme: Make mealtime family learning time
Preparing for mealtime is a fun (and tasty) way for families to learn together. Whether it’s following recipes, making shopping lists, or sharing stories at the dinner table, make your mealtime family learning time.
HELP W.E.S. CELEBRATE FAMILY LITERACY DAY
On Tuesday, January 27th, W.E.S. will help celebrate Family Literacy Day by inviting families to our school to read with our students from 11:30am-12pm. In grades K-3, a family member is invited to come and read with their child, and in Grades 4-7 there will be a mystery reader reading to the students. Watch for notices or a See Saw message from teachers about this soon.
