John Kennedy School kicked off a reading program today with a "Dancing with the Stars" contest in the school's auditorium.
The stars were faculty and staff dressed up as characters from popular children's stories, from Shrek to Snow White and Puss 'n' Boots.
It was a full, multi-media event with rehearsal videos and zingers from the judges.
Children earn tickets to vote for their favorites by completing nightly reading assignments with their parents.
