Summer Reading Recommendations
NCS LIBRARY SUMMER READING CHALLENGE
Summer is here, and it is the perfect time for reading! This summer we are inviting all students to participate in the NCS Library Summer Reading Challenge!
Students should be reading each and every day over the summer break to ensure that they continue to grow. Students who read for 20 minutes every day over the summer will have read 1,500 minutes by summer’s end. Our fun reading challenge will help your child stay sharp over the summer and return to school in August ready to learn!
Each student should complete the attached reading packet to track their books and number of minutes spent reading. During the first week of school students should return their book and minute logs to earn prizes!
