Locust Corner teacher Kathy Wilson was honored at the
Clermont County Chamber of Commerce’s Salute to Leaders Banquet which honored
non-elected individuals or organizations that made a major contribution to the
quality of life in Clermont County in 2013.
Ms. Wilson was nominated by the Pierce Township Trustees for
her service with the READ program at LCE. She founded Locust Corner’s
reading dog program in 2007 and organizes several community members who bring their
therapy dogs to weekly reading sessions with Locust Corner’s K-3 grade
students.
“These group members also come to all three of our Family
Literacy Nights,” noted LCE teacher Erin Parker. “Ms. Wilson's program started
with her star reading dog, Gator and many of the other members and their dogs
were present to honor Ms. Wilson.”
