Family Assistance opportunities:
Dr. Mays' Million Minute Reading Challenge!
Dr. Mays is challenging our school community to read one million minutes this school year.
The challenge will run from October 17 - April 30.
The top campuses by learning community and level will get bragging rights and a traveling trophy!
It's an ambitious goal, BUT all of our students are encouraged to participate.
The Million Minute Reading Challenge includes a healthy reading competition between schools. The campus that logs the most minutes in each learning community by level will receive a prize and bragging rights to the traveling trophy.
In addition, we will be reporting on book titles and genres of interest to see and understand what our community is most interested in reading by age level.
Target: PreK-12th Grade, all campuses
What you need to know to get started:
Students will log their minutes using this form linked here.
For students in 5th grade and below, teachers should walk students through completing the Google Form.
Teachers are encouraged to add the link to their BLEND courses and to their websites.
Students and teachers can follow the competition on this website to track their campus's minutes and overall district progress toward our goal.
