Sheehy Elementary recently hosted "Family Literacy Night," which was organized by teacher librarian Olivia Macchia.
More than 30 families came to the campus to enjoy stories in English and Spanish read by members of the Merced Police Department and Sheehy's English Learner Advisory Committee/School Site Council Vice President.
The evening also included pastries and milk, face painting, and a book giveaway.
This fun-filled event supports the district's goal to have all students reading proficiently by the end of third grade.
