Jane Adams Elementary had the honor of hosting a special visit from Nia the Author - Nia Obotette, an inspiring children's book author.

During her visit, Nia read her story "I Am a Triathlete" and shared her inspiration behind the book, as well as her passion for being a triathlete. She engaged with the students, answering their questions with enthusiasm.πŸ“–πŸ“šπŸ“’


It was a wonderful event, and we were thrilled to meet a real author in person! Each student in the Jane Addams Girls on the Run program received a signed copy of Nia Obotette's book, making the experience even more memorable.
