Ben Carson Reading Room Coming to Curtin





A Ben Carson Reading Project Room is being developed to be created in the Curtin library. Curtin recently received confirmation about putting a reading room in our school. The Ben Carson Scholarship Foundation is giving us a grant of $10,000 to do this endeavor. Did you know that Dr. Ben Carson is a world renowned pediatric neurosurgeon? He is most noted for the successful separation of siamese twins. We have to have the room completed at Curtin by May 1, 2009. Another important piece of information is that Dr. Carson is coming to the Williamsport Community Arts Center to speak to the community on May 20th. Admission is free to all students K-12. One last thing is that you can learn more about Dr. Carson by watching the made for television movie which will be on TNT this Saturday. It is called the Ben Carson Story: Gifted Hands. This is great news for our school.
