Stars Participate In Rocket Into Reading
Dominican University has been involved in Oliver Wendell Holmes School's Rocket Into Reading Program for four years. During the annual program, which is over 15 years old, students at the Oak Park elementary school compete to determine which class can read the most over a specified period of time. The program culminates with Guest Reader Day, during which dignitaries from the community visit the school to read to students. This year four Dominican student athletes read to Holmes students, including Rosa Andreuccetti (soccer), Katie Petty (soccer), Jane Kilmar (basketball) and Gabby Sherer (cross country). [+]
