This week we were visited by author, John Coy.

Mr. Coy had visited ISY back in 2016. He was very eager to return and glad that he did. He met with our Middle School and High School students and spoke to them not only about the writing process but also about overcoming setbacks and sticking to your plan. The students learned a lot from Mr. Coy and his most important message was to read….

Read for Fun. Read to Learn. Read to Grow. Read to Focus. Read to Relax. Just Read!
