My Project

A subscription to Scholastic News will continue to enhance the print-rich 3rd grade that we strive to create. Students will learn Minnesota literacy standards through reading about current events in the magazine and with the online materials. This subscription is for a year of engaging materials, written specifically for third-grade students.

We hope to create lifelong readers who are good citizens who pay attention to what is happening in our community and the world.

The Arts is a wonderfully diverse school. We have the best third graders in all of the city. Our students are creative, outgoing, and smart. They deserve every resource we can give them.

Thank you for supporting us!
