Students in the Future Educators Association (FEA) at Kishwaukee College held a Book Drive in November and early December to collect books for children in the first grade class at North Elementary School in Sycamore. The group collected 150 books of various reading levels. Alexa Johnson, Sycamore, FEA President; Olivia Frye, DeKalb, FEA Secretary; and Jodi Lord, FEA Faculty Advisor, wrapped the books to give them as gifts to students in the classrooms. Johnson has been in the classroom at North Elementary as part of her clinical experience for her Education Program at Kishwaukee College. She plans to transfer to Northern Illinois University in Fall 2017 to continue her education and become a teacher for grades 1 – 6. Pictured are some of the students at North with their books; Alexa Johnson is standing in the back row.
