Reflections

  • Principal Travis Primary - Michelle Wallace

    We were absolutely thrilled to welcome Ray Reynosa to our campus for a special reading session with our K-3 students! His engaging storytelling and enthusiasm brought the book to life, capturing the imagination of every child in the room. It was incredible to see our young learners so captivated, eager to participate, and inspired to explore the magic of reading. Mr. Reynosa had a wonderful way of connecting with the students, making them laugh, ask questions, and think creatively. His visit not only reinforced a love for books but also encouraged our students to dream big and tell their own stories. We are so grateful for this experience and highly recommend an author visit from Ray Reynosa to any school looking to foster a love for literacy in young minds. We would love to have him back again!
