Randolph Reads is an annual summer reading program designed to inspire community, connection, and a love of reading while exploring important themes. This year, our stories have been chosen because they inspire joy and remind us of the importance of play and imagination! RPS students will receive a copy of the book in June or they can borrow copies from the Turner Free Library!
