READ-A-THON is in full swing, and our reading community keeps growing!

This week our 5th-8th graders will hear from Sara Ryan, K-2 and 5th will get a special visit from our very own Librarian Gillian Grimm, and K-2 will cap off Read-a-thon with a visit from Zoey Abbot. Zoey's books in particular are going fast, so if you want signed copiesโ€” along with books from other visiting authors โ€” get them soon here.

Weโ€™ve reached 30% of our fundraising goal of $42,000โ€” weโ€™re off to a great start! Now we need to build on that momentum and push our participation rate even higher. These funds support all students through field studies, gardening and sustainability programs, music with Mo, and more.

Please register your student and start fundraising today โ€” it takes just 2 minutes. Share your studentโ€™s page with friends and family and ask for support.

Early registration and outreach make a huge difference in helping us reach our goal.

How to participate:
โ€ข Read anything: books, magazines, comics, or audiobooks (no podcasts, though stories count!)
โ€ข Read to yourself, a sibling, a pet, or even a stuffed animal (being read to DOES count!)
โ€ข Track minutes on the bookmark and submit at the end

Letโ€™s keep reading, sharing, and growing our community โ€” page by page.

And this Friday is our last Read-a-thon dress up day: Dress as Your Favorite Book Character!
