Six Flags Reading Program
For completing 6 hours of reading outside of school time students in kindergarten through grade 5 are eligible to earn a free ticket for Six Flags Great America. There is a NEW feature this year - electronic Reading Logs. Adults will register and log their child(ren)’s reading time into an online reading log directly on Six Flags’ website. Families will have the ability to track their child’s progress during the program. Also NEW this year is an extended program deadline of April 16th, leaving more time to complete the reading minutes.
Register using this link:
You will need the teacher code for each child that you register
There are no reading logs to return this year; everything will be done online. Tickets will be distributed by teachers in mid-May, once the tickets have been sent by Six Flags.
Please note: Six Flags does not allow 4K students to participate in this program.
Any questions can be directed to Mrs. Beth Anne Krahn, Rose Glen's coordinator for Read to Succeed.
