Description

We are holding a Read-a-Thon to encourage student literacy and raise money for the Lower Playground Enhancement Project. Specifically, this year the Dogwood Hill PTO is raising money for basketball hoops, a Gaga ball pit, and other playground equipment to enhance the playground area at the school.

 

Students read their goal minutes each day and parents, grandparents, family members, parents' coworkers, friends, and neighbotrs pledge amounts based on reading minutes. 

 

We are looking for raffle prizes to reward student reading.  Students who meet their daily reading goals each day of the two-week program will be entered to win their choice of a grand prize.  These prizes will NOT be awarded based on donation amounts.
