PARP (Pick A Reading Partner) 
Open A Book, Open the World: East Lake Reads Around the World

Picture
Once again East Lake students will be participating in PARP, Pick a Reading Partner 2026 program. The PARP program encourages children to pick a partner (Parent, Grandparent, Sibling, Cousin, Babysitter or Friend) to read for just 20 minutes a day.  This will help them build their vocabulary, improve comprehension, and allow your children to expand their imagination.

​
This year's theme for PARP, “Open A Book, Open the World: East Lake Reads Around The World”, will kick off on Monday, February 2nd!
