It’s Dr. Seuss Week at Ada Elementary. Here, kindergarten children Lily Muniz and Drew Griffin don Cat in the Hat hats at the school library on Monday.
Dr. Seuss, America’s Poet Laureate of Nonsense, was born March 2, 1904, so Ada Elementary annually has a week-long celebration this time of year in honor of his birthday.
Monday was Hat Day, Tuesday is Character Day, the next day is Wacky Wednesday, Thursday is Fox in Crazy Socks Day, and, finally, Friday celebrates Oh, the Places You’ll Go.

Kindergarten children at Ada Elementary read to puppies on Monday afternoon.
Several dogs travel from the campus to the Ada Schools each week to be read to by the children in Mrs. Megan Kosier’s class.
For several years, an ONU group known as Polar Paws trains puppies to be service dogs. The canines accompany the college students to classes, live in residence halls, go to the dining hall, attend events...even listen to kindergartner youngsters read to them.
