Berkeley jackson

Berkeley Jackson is currently a 7th grader at New Albany Middle School. Outside of school, Berkeley loves dancing with the New Albany Ballet Company. 

Berkeley shares, " I love to read more than almost anything else. 
There is nothing better than jumping into a good book and reading for hours because you know there is nothing better to do but get lost in the twists and turns of an amazing story. It had really never occurred to me that kids haven’t been able to experience this feeling of getting into a really amazing book, until I heard about The Read to Succeed Foundation. One reason why I want to volunteer at The Read to Succeed Foundation is because I want to make a difference. I  believe that the feeling of getting into a great book is one every child should be able to enjoy."
