Hello! My name is Julie Arnold and I teach Kindergarten at Gateway Science Academy South in St. Louis, MO. I am passionate about early literacy and teaching my students the foundational skills they need to be successful readers. Part of that is hearing books read aloud with characters they love. My students LOVE read aloud time! My goal is to gift each child with one book each month that they can take home and read with their families, hopefully creating a lifelong love of books! Your support will help make this possible for them! Thank you for your help in setting the foundation for success in reading! Julie
