Students from The De La Salle School recently walked across the street to the Freeport Memorial Library to discuss the short story The Parsley Garden by William Saroyan.
Lasallian Volunteer, Mr. Jake Haagenson, co-lead the discussion with librarian Ms. Cindy Soto. Clockwise from center front in the photo above are Kenneth, Jason G., Albert, Mr. Haagenson, James, Brandon and Manuel. The students read the short story at least twice prior to the discussion.
Eight times during the school year students in grades 7 and 8 volunteer to participate in the Junior Great Books Program at our local public library.
