Welcome Parents, Students and Friends to our Read-a-thon!
This year, we are excited to announce that we will hold a Read-a-thon fundraiser. Our
Read-a-thon is a program that brings students together with family and friends to
encourage reading and to build literacy skills.
The main focus of the Read-a-thon is for everyone to know we are committed to
improving reading skills. To that end, the Read-a-thon promises to be a fun, exciting
journey for all participants as they begin a personal Reading Adventure that challenges
each reader to complete 10 reading sessions over our 2-week event.
Our Read-a-thon will start March 1, 2021.
Approximately 1 week before we start our first reading session we will send home
paperwork with your reader explaining how you will activate their personal Read-a-thon
page.
You will know that we have distributed the take home sheet because we will also place
a green Read-a-thon bracelet around your child’s wrist as a reminder.
We understand that, as parents, you have high expectations for the quality of your
child’s education but also have limited time.
That’s why we chose to hold a Read-a-thon.
You will find this to be the easiest fundraiser possible. By simply activating your
reader’s personal page and using the promotional tools found there, friends and family
anywhere in the world can show their support for your reader by making a donation to
our Read-a-thon.
Your involvement in the Read-a-thon will help your child develop a lasting love of
reading.
We hope each one of you will activate your child’s personal page the day your child
brings home their paperwork. Hopefully they will be wearing their green bracelet as
well.
