From Sandra Rhone: Project Prevent sponsored Storytime and Easter Egg Hunting for Hope Head Start Students. Several Project Prevent members were awarded the opportunity to read to younger students while others hid Easter Eggs and waited for the excitement on the faces of the younger students. This was a fun activity for the younger students and an extension of learning outside the classroom for Yerger Middle School 7th and 8th-grade students. Yerger students benefited by having time to develop their literacy skills. For instance, if a student is a struggling reader, they acquire confidence by reading to a younger student in a less intimidating environment, often by reading a lower-level book. Project Prevent is Arkansas's statewide youth tobacco prevention coalition. Its members consist of local Chapters across the state that choose to live free from tobacco and nicotine and encourage others to do the same. #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture
