READ! READ! READ!

March kicks off Victoria's Pleasure Reading month! Students are challenged to complete several tasks this month that are tied to reading. Students completing the challenges will earn prizes!
  • Week 1: Students are challenged to read an additional 30 minutes at least 4 nights this week. All those successfully completing this task will earn an extra 10 minutes of recess
  • Week 2: Students are challenged to write a creative story. By doing this, they can earn a "game day" during their lunch period.
  • Week 3: This may prove to be the most difficult challenge for some! Student are challenged to turn off the T.V. and video games for at least 4 days this week. This will earn students a picnic lunch on the lawn and Popsicle.
  • Successfully completing all 3 weeks' challenges will earn the student a free book!
  • Also, if a student goes to the public library any time during Pleasure Reading Month and has their card stamped will receive a piece of candy.
Pictured above are 5 students who have read over 1 million words with our Accelerated Reader Program this year!
