Jacksonville's Metropolitan Park overflowed with excitement Saturday as thousands of kids and their families came together to celebrate the thrills of reading and learning.  The PEP Rally for Excellence was sponsored, in part, by the Duval County Public Schools and WJCT.   Here are a few of the photos and interviews we collected:
