WASHINGTON  -  U.S. Representative Jo Ann Emerson (MO-08) will tour Ava Elementary
School tomorrow.  She is scheduled to read to a 1st grade class and speak to 4th graders about American government TOMORROW beginning at 9:00 a.m. CST.  She will then visit the high school and speak to American history students.

 

“There’s nothing I enjoy more than spending some time with a classroom of enthusiastic young students and reading or talking about our American government,” Emerson said.  “At school and at home, there may be no more important skill than reading for a lifetime of learning.  I’m an avid reader, both for work and for pleasure, and I love sharing a good book with the young boys and girls who have discovered the joy of reading books.”

 

“American history is a fascinating subject.  Our high school students are learning about the patriotism of generations of Americans, and I hope I can provide them with an interesting perspective about Congress, American politics, and the role of our nation in the world.”
