Ryan Argot in the Community
Here are some of the times Ryan Argot has been out in the community or featured online.
Reading365 with American Literacy Corporation
Whether he is reading to students or discussing social issues after, Ryan enjoys spending time online with ALC’s reading volunteers. Shown below, he is talking about science and religion (after reading) about the moon. That is followed by a reading from the fire house and an educational panel.
Learning about Firefighters
How to Help Your Child Have a Successful School Year
As summer comes to a close, Ryan continues to share love of reading with children throughout the world. Pictured here, he also talks about Little Libraries in the neighborhood. If you listen to the very end you will even hear solos from Ryan and Miss Stokes.
American Families Plan
Ryan usually focuses on local initiatives, but when asked to help with efforts to improve America’s Infrastructure he participated in a MomsRising rising postcard campaign that led to a “debate” with Mitch McConnell. The local postcard campaign was led by Hampden’s own Stephanie Lane.

Reading365 with American Literary Corporation
Ryan put his lab coat on in honor of Women’s History Month as he read about DNA and shared the significance of work by Rosalind Franklin in figuring out what DNA looked like, even as he even argued that her work is relevant today as we fight Covid-19. Fair warning, after Miss Sue read her book he was in full “science history professor” type mode.
