March is National Reading Month, emphasizing diversity in books and readers, reflecting different cultures and student experiences. We also celebrate Women's History Month. March officially became Women's History Month in 1987 and allows us to acknowledge the historical contributions of women in the United States. International Women's Day is observed on March 8. This is a reminder, and I know that many of you are planning to weave these two events throughout your instruction this month.
