Today, Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) visited Bedford Elementary in Dearborn Heights to read to students in celebration of Reading Month. Dingell read “House Mouse, Senate Mouse” by Peter W. Barnes and Cheryl Shaw Barnes to kindergarten and first grade students. 

“It was wonderful to spend time reading and talking with students at Bedford Elementary today,” said Dingell. “Reading is such an important tool in helping students find their passion and reach their full potential, and I want to thank the teachers and staff at Bedford and across our state who are inspiring kids to become life-long readers. It was just as fun to hear what the children are thinking about, and it was a great reminder of how critical it is to help young minds think and reflect at early ages."

Bedford Elementary and schools nationwide are celebrating Reading Month with events throughout March.
