Read for Redfield! 

January 31st through February 9th 2023

The Redfield PTO is proud to announce its 1st Read-A-Thon! We want ALL of our children to develop a love of reading for pleasure, for knowledge and for adventure!

Every day beginning January 31st  through February 9th participants will earn money by asking for sponsorships on the Boosterthon website for their efforts in reading.  Participants will get pledges from family and friends to support them.  Sponsors can pledge a certain amount by making a flat donation.  Participants will receive prizes as they hit different metrics. 

What does the PTO do with the money raised?

Please help us reach our goal of raising $40,000. Most of this money goes directly to teachers for supplies in their classrooms, the rest helps fund Athletes in Training at recess, and enables the PTO to throw community events like Ringo and the Trunk or Treat. It will also provide grants for things like the scholastic news, community gardens, kindergarten chicks and ducks, 5th grade farewell breakfast and this year upgrading the portable sound system. 

What is a Read-a-thon?

The read-a-thon is an event that encourages children to become better readers and learners by nurturing a joy of reading. This will also be our largest fundraiser of the year. Students will collect donations from sponsors and have 10 days to read as much as possible.
