On December 13, 2012, RIF (Reading Is Fundamental)Read-In Day “Share the Gift of Reading”; the Shreveport Job Corps Center had 10 CPP and CDP students who volunteered to read to the students at J. S. Clark Elementary School from 9 – 11 am.  The students read both Christmas stories and other stories to the classes and shared with them the trades they were taking while attending the Shreveport Job Corps. They also shared with the students that Job Corps was a great place to continue their education and get career training which would help them get good jobs upon graduation.  The students also had an opportunity to meet and speak to the Superintendent of Caddo Parish Schools, Mr. Gerald Dawkins and Mr. Carl Pierson, Caddo Parish School Board member and others.
