Good Morning Everyone,

 Starting today, our school will be hosting a Read-a-thon challenge for all students to promote reading throughout the school. At home, the suggested goal for each student is to read 20 minutes per day.  For our primary students, this also includes being read to. We would like students to read above and beyond what they do in their classrooms.

 Your child will be provided with a Reading Calendar. This Calendar will travel back and forth to school each day. Record your child's reading minutes on the corresponding day in the calendar. Return the calendars to the school each morning. so that we can record the student totals and count them toward our reading challenge goals. Read-a-thon video challenges will be viewed in class and can also be accessed from on the school website to view at home.

 We are grateful for Mrs. Walker (ARES Teacher/Librarian) who is the mastermind behind the read-a-thon and are looking forward to a month of reading and fun.
