Leaders are readers and also among the first in line for great food from 105 FM.

Smart kids eat better.

La Verne Heights teacher Kathy Beauchamp’s first grade buckaroos got all the fixins and more for registering a chart-topping score in reading comprehension.

At noon, her bookworms lined up for pulled pork barbecue sandwiches and fries from the Go Country 105 FM Chuck Wagon, which rolled into the school’s parking lot a little after high noon to reward the voracious (look that word up, young bibliophiles) readers, whose favorite books include “The Magic Tree House” and “Junie B. Jones.”

While there were no sightings of Carrie Underwood or Lady Antebellum, La Verne’s little country cowpokes didn’t seem to mind.

These ranch hands posed for this one picture before they got down to the business of eating.

Outstanding readers come in great numbers at La Verne Heights!
