My Project

Summer is coming and our 725 scholars need incentives for keeping up with their reading over the break. We have many reluctant readers and we want to encourage and reward them for their hard work.

Please help us to provide fun incentives and prizes to get our students to continue their reading over summer break.

We want to encourage our students to continue reading over the summer. We have a summer reading challenge where students keep track of the minutes and books that they have read over the summer. These incentives will help us to reward them along the way.
