Dictionary Project

For 2007, the Papago Rotary Club will increase the number of schools and students receiving a dictionary.  This year, third graders at Pueblo, Navajo, Kiva, Salt River Elementary and the Interact Club at Coronado High School received their own dictionary - over 400 students!

Comments from the Kids!

In December, 2006, members of the Papago Rotary Club of Scottsdale distributed a dictionary to each third grader at Tonalea Elementary School and to members of the Interact Club at Coronado High School.  In January, 2007, each third grader at Navajo Elementary School also received a dictionary courtesy of the Papago Rotary Club.  The photographs that follow are from the visit to Tonalea Elementary.  Special thanks to Rotarian Pam Peacock for setting up our visit to Tonalea and to all the students, faculty and staff at Tonalea and Navajo Schools for welcoming us to their schools.
