Children in the Baldwin School District — pre-kindergarten to sixth grade — are participating in Molloy University’s spring enrichment program — several Zoom-based educational sessions aimed at developing literary and social emotional skills in young students. 

The university said they aim to foster a love of literacy throughout four sessions held on Saturday mornings beginning on March 4.

The university’s spring enrichment program is a free and has one more session on April 1 at 9:15-10:15 a.m. 

The university said students from preschool through grade 3 are reading “The Day the Crayons Quit” a book by Drew Daywalt, and students from fourth grade through sixth are reading “The Crossover,” by Kwame Alexander — Packets with all materials needed to participate in the program are delivered participating children’s classroom and sent home in their backpacks.

The student packets are generously funded by a grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation through the university. Registration was conducted through an electronic form was available through the Baldwin School District’s several principals.
