ISU TRiO Program in Idaho Falls to Read, Donate
“Cat in the Hat” Books at Iona School on Dec. 17

What: The Idaho State University TRiO Program in Idaho Falls will host an event at Iona Elementary School in Idaho Falls on Friday, Dec. 17th.

Idaho Falls TRiO club members from ISU Center for Higher Education in Idaho Falls and Bonneville High School will be reading and distributing copies of the “Cat in the Hat” to all the first graders (75 students).

The books were donated through a grant from First Book of Bonneville County. ASISU in Idaho Falls has donated the time of Benny the Tiger, the Idaho State University mascot. A TRiO club member has also donated her time and her husband’s as Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

The event was organized by TRiO Club members to help promote reading to younger students and to get books in the hands of kids!
