EBR Celebrates the Imagination Library

Gov. John Bel Edwards and EBR Schools Superintendent Dr. Sito Narcisse helped launch Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of Louisiana statewide expansion at Crestworth Elementary School. The initiative’s goal is to inspire a love for reading by offering free, age-appropriate books to children ages zero to five years. At the event, the governor read from Parton’s book, Coat of Many Colors. Students received gift bags and enjoyed a snowball celebration featuring LSU’s Mike the Tiger, Southern University’s Lacumba and cheerleaders, and PBS’s Super Why.
