Our building has a diversified population with a great reading range and ability. About 17% of our population qualify for free lunch. We believe it is critical to create and maintain a passion for reading through the middle school years to keep our students readers for life. Our staff is dedicated to creating an environment that honors reading. We provide opportunities for silent reading during our day so that students become immersed in their book. We also have an all school read each year where all of us read the same book and have discussion and activities to celebrate the book and author.
