Windsor Hills students hold poetry reading at Barnes & Noble

If you visited Barnes and Noble last Tuesday on Rivers Avenue, you were in for a treat. Students from Windsor Hill Elementary School presented their poetry in the café. In addition, a slide show case of their work ran in the children’s section of the store. The show included the artwork of nature that inspired their poems. The students received part of the in-store sales from 4-8 p.m. that night and raised almost $350.00. One patron was so impressed by the quality of the writing, he made a cash donation saying he could not have written like that when he was their age.

The funds raised will go toward a field trip for next year. Their teacher, Cindy Curtis, held a book signing for her recently released book, Touching the Heart of God. She sold over fifty signed copies. All in all, the event was a huge success.
