My Project

After implementing a new Accelerated Reader reading program this school year, my students are on fire for reading.

We have set obtainable reading goals, however, students also have to stretch to accomplish the task set before them.

Each book read, is one step closer to that goal. When they ask for a particular book, I do my very best to get it on our shelves. I am asking readers to reach deep within themselves and make reading a priority. Read every day to learn, grow and shine with what they know.
