Celebrate National Reading Month this March with our Reading Challenge! Students are invited to participate in a month-long challenge designed to build excitement around reading. Each student will receive a copy of the Reading Challenge to complete throughout the month.
Students who complete at least half of the challenge tasks by the end of March will earn one raffle entry for a chance to win a basket filled with reading goodies. Students who complete all of the tasks will receive two raffle entries as a bonus for their hard work and dedication!
Completed Reading Challenge forms must be signed by a parent/guardian and returned to the librarian, Mrs. Talbert, by Tuesday, March 31st. The raffle drawing will be held on Friday, April 3rd, when we will announce the lucky winner(s) of the reading goodies baskets.
