Conroy reads to kindergartners at Chatfield-LoPresti School in Seymour

State Rep. Theresa Conroy, D-Seymour, read Wednesday to Miss Giannettino's kindergarten class at Chatfield-LoPresti School in Seymour as part of Read Across the Valley. The event was organized by The Early Childhood Task Force of the Valley Council for Health and Human Services.

Conroy read "Pete the Cat and His Magical Sunglasses" by James and Kimberly Dean.   
The children happily participated and sang the story’s refrain:

The birds are singing

The sky is bright

The sun is shining

I'm feeling alright
