One hundred and ten first-graders at Barranca Elementary are participating in this year s RIF program. Students are challenged to ready 24 books in eight weeks, earning prizes along the way. Encouraging students to be prolific readers at an early age is so important to their success throughout life, stated Margett. Reading is the core learning skill for children and I am pleased to be even a small part in this wonderful program, he continued. Barranca Elementary School is located at 727 S. Barranca Avenue, Covina.
