THE READ-A-THON (MAR 2- MAR 13th)
Students ask sponsors to pledge money for as many minutes as they think they can read for the duration of the Read-a-thon . We hope to raise a minimum of $200 per student. An easy way to raise money is to spread your sponsorships among many people. If everyone asks 10 donors for $20, we can hit the mark!
*Reading logs are to be turned in March 4th...and NO LATER than March 13th.
*Funds raised due by March 11th.
*Winners announced at an assembly on March 16th in the morning. Recess will be determined at a later date. (Dates/prizes subject to change)
