It's Read Across America Week! Read Across America is set aside to commemorate the birthday of Dr. Theodor Seuss Geisel, or Dr. Seuss. Dr. Seuss is the author of many books for children, like The Cat In the Hat, Horton Hears A Who and The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.
In recognition of Read Across America Week, NHS Principal Brelinda Sullen wore a costume from a character (or two) from The Cat In The Hat.
To paraphrase a parent, Ms Sullen is a principal who can do more than one thing.
