March is Reading Month!!!

 

Let's all "Dive into Reading"

this month!

Our March is Reading Month kick-off was held Thursday, February 25th at 2:30 PM in the Nims Gym.  It was a great way to jump-start our exciting month.

All students are challenged to read for five hours at home this month.  Those who meet that challenge will be rewarded with a special surprise party in April.  Teachers will provide reading logs each week to keep track of how many minutes were read. 

If you have lost your log you can get a new one here: Replacement Log.  

Great March is Reading Month
