Books, Blankets, and Family Fun!
The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System wants to empower every child to become a proficient reader and live a choice-filled life!
We hope to see your family at our annual Books, Blankets & Family Fun event to celebrate reading, literacy, and STEAM education in Daffin Park (1500 E. Victory Drive) on Saturday, April 26, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be reading activities, vendor booths, music and games, guest readers, student performances, speakers, and the always-popular Teddy Bear Clinic. The event is free – and there will be food trucks on site if you would like to buy lunch or snacks. It’s fun for everyone! Spread out your blanket and enjoy the day!
Families, be sure to sign-in by 2:30 p.m. to help your child’s school win prizes. The top three schools with the most participation will win!
If your organization would like to apply to participate as a vendor for the event and engage with attendees through interactive booths and activities, you can apply here. Vendors will provide resources, demonstrations, or hands-on experiences that align with our mission to ensure every child becomes a proficient reader. Additionally, organizations can sponsor activities, volunteer as guest readers, or contribute in other meaningful ways to enhance the event experience. The application/registration deadline is April 18, 2025. Thank you for your support!

beanstack
We are excited to partner with Live Oak Public Library to promote to use of beanstack. Beanstack is an app that serves as a digital reading log. Children can log their reading using beanstack. Students can access this app through their Classlink profile. Now, students can link their beanstack account with Live Oak Public Library to their account with May Howard. As students log their reading, they accumulate points, badges, and earn prizes.
See the links below on how to link your library account with your school account.

Student Spotlight: Wyatt Giovannini, 5th Grader at May Howard Elementary School
Wyatt Giovannini: We're just creating a new code for the robot.
Christina Lynes: Good job. Do your next code.
Ken Slats: He's Wyatt Giovannini, helping engineer competition success for his team at May Howard Elementary School.
Wyatt Giovannini: Coding is when you put, like, blocks on a computer together and it makes, like a robot move that you designed.
Christina Lynes: And he's got true leadership qualities that not your average fifth grader would have. Wyatt, how many cups are in a gallon? Very good.
Wyatt Giovannini: I answer a lot of questions in class, and I've done a lot of extra stuff like student council and robotics with her, and I've really succeeded in those.
Christina Lynes: He was a definitely a leader. He took the initiative, and he helped all the other teammates on the team as well. And we actually went all the way to state.
Wyatt Giovannini: If they need help, I really help them, but I don't sometimes I don't give them the full answer. I just give them like a hint.
Ken Slats: Wyatt also partnered up with a classmate for a social studies project that exploded through its first round of competition.
Wyatt Giovannini: This is our research question, which is, what this conclusion and all these things are about.
Christina Lynes: He would take things home and work on it at home because he wanted to win. He's got a little bit of, competitiveness in him.
Wyatt Giovannini: We talked about how volcanoes affect crops and plants, and we did very well in that. And we went to the next, level.
Dr. Denise Watts: Please help me congratulate Wyatt Giovannini, the student superintendent's student of the month for March.
Christina Lynes: He's definitely going to be some kind of leader. Or maybe an engineer. He definitely likes to please. He doesn't ever want to let down me or his other teachers or even his parents. And he's got a younger sister and an older brother. He looks up to his older brother and also his younger sister. He just wants to please everyone.
Wyatt Giovannini: I kind of want to be a pro soccer player, but if that doesn't work out, I want to also be a vet because I really like dogs.
Ken Slats: Certainly Wyatt is wired for success. He's your superintendent's student of the month with your Student Spotlight. I'm Ken. Let's see.
