GRANT SPOTLIGHT
“Reading! Reading! Get Caught Reading!” A fall grant in the junior/senior high set up a challenge for 7th - 12th grade to get caught reading independently on their own time in school. The Culture of Reading Team set out to instill a love of reading through rewards and incentives throughout the school year. Evidence supports the fact that students need to become readers and/or find a love of reading to feel success in many other aspects of their lives. Congrats to this team on their initiative!
