To kick off the school year and get kids excited to read, school librarian Pat Bartoshesky contacted Success Won’t Wait about a unique event. Success Won’t Wait provided hundreds of books for each grade and students were allowed to choose books to take home and keep.

In addition, Success Won’t Wait co-founder Vincenza Carrieri-Russo, the reigning Miss Delaware USA, visited each classroom and spoke to the students about the importance of becoming a lifelong reader.
