Description
In a daring feat to promote reading among students, Chris Meyer, a dedicated Physical Education teacher at Southside School in Shelton, embarked on an adrenaline-fueled adventure by skydiving while reading a book selected by the students.
The stunt was the culmination of a three-week reading challenge aimed at encouraging students to pick up books during their summer break and to avoid the learning loss that tends to follow the school year.
The innovative reading challenge captured the attention and imagination of the students at Southside School. The idea was inspired by a teacher in Virginia who shared a skydiving video welcoming her new third-grade class.
