Learn English with your family!

Join us at the Newberry Branch every other Saturday from January 11th to March 8th for the "English for Families" program. “English for Families” is a multi-week series of interactive English classes for families that focuses on developing vocabulary and literacy skills through story reading. Each class features a lesson centered around a children’s book that participating families get to take home with them as well as a hands-on activity and/or game and refreshments. These classes target families with children from 6 years to 12 years old although all are welcome. We encourage families to commit to the full 5 week session and registration is recommended.
