The JCPS Title I Office is excited to bring nationally known authors and illustrators to our district. Willa Brigham, Scott Reintgen, Maria Scrivan, and Bre'Anna Washington will travel to schools throughout the district, meet with students, talk with them about their careers, and hold a book signing. Students at Title I schools will receive a copy of the author's book in advance so they're ready to talk about the book with the author themselves! Families are invited to join JCPS at an evening Meet-the-Author event at our AG Glenn Building, located at 501 S. Second Street in Smithfield. Each author will meet with families, discuss their book, and have a book signing. There will also be light refreshments and door prizes!
