Paul Pierce, James Posey and Glen Davis lent supporting roles to a play performed by students at the Taylor Elementary School. The students taught the players their roles and then performed the play in front of the entire 2nd through 5th grades. This performance was a part of the Celtics' Read to Achieve program, proudly sponsored by Aquafina and the New England Eye Center.
Read to Achieve is designed to encourage a lifelong love of reading.
