Read to Me Friday's

Mr. Mark Hughes

Mark Hughes, nationally renowned marketing expert and CEO of Buzz Marketing, kicked off The Pathway School's new Read To Me Friday's literacy initiative on Friday, October 26, 2007.   Read to Me Friday's is a new program designed to promote literacy among Pathway's 170 students with learning disabilities and neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism and mood and anxiety disorders. In addition to generating excitement about reading, the program will help to further enhance students' listening and comprehension skills, encourage them to pose and respond to questions, and use expressive language.
