Greetings!
In the upcoming 2016-2017 school year, Kern Reading Association continues its mission to enrich the reading experiences of students throughout Kern County. The Kern Reading Association is an affiliate of the California Reading Association and the International Literacy Association.
Monthly board meetings are held in the Kern County Superintendent of Schools' Office at 1300 17th Street on the fifth floor. A schedule of meeting dates can be found on the KRA website (Calendar of Events). The meetings are open to any interested members. Any changes to the meeting venue are noted on the calendar.
Events highlighted during the year include an October presentation by local author Rebecca Langston George and the annual Book Talk Tea in February.
The year will also include a return to the original Young Author’s Fair format: a week full of authors' visits to schools, an author’s dinner, and a fun-filled Saturday of student book displays and author presentations and signings.
Please join me this year as we celebrate students, teachers, librarians, authors, and reading in Kern County!

President
