Last Thursday, @gsgators had their very own “story walk-a-palooza" for students to enjoy outside!

A StoryWalk® is a movement and literacy boosting project that places an illustrated children’s book, taken apart and displayed page by page, along with a walking route made for that community. Olathe Public Schools’ Library Media Specialists Kathleen Kamradt, Julia Crainshaw and Janelle Stigall had read about the idea and decided to obtain a grant from @OPSF233 to make it happen in Olathe.

“The way our grant is set up is that we’ll have 12 books over the course of the next six years, having one in the spring and one in the fall,” Kamradt said. “We’re getting the fresh air and the opportunity to get out, read and have discussions.”

Green Springs Elementary has held similar events in the past inside, but this is the first time they got to go outside and be a part of this awesome experience. Thanks to the help of some of our amazing librarians, this is an experience that students will get to see more of in the future!

If only you could've seen the look the student I put the mic up to gave me. With no words at all, she said, "Are you serious? You should've known better than to come to me." 🤣

While August typically brings more sweat than snow, Olathe students are asking you to “Let it Go” and enjoy a one-of-a-kind production of Disney’s hit musical Frozen. https://t.co/H7u55307Sx
