Description

Our school is excited to hold our Annual Read-A-Thon this fall as our first school fundraiser of the new school year. This fundraiser encourages literacy by having our students read every day for 2 weeks and recording how long they read and raising money for every minute that they read. This is an in school and home event that the students will participate in. Students are challanded to read and complete a reading log and to collect pledges for how much they can read.  All money raised from this event goes to purchase new books, library matierals for the class room and school library. The items that are donated will be used as prize incentives for our students. Donors are acknowledged and thanked on our social meida platforms, website, and also in all of our school wide publications.
