Our Spring Book Challenge - Meet Ralph!
All students that submit their completed logs will earn a Reading Saves the Day spirit stick and families will be entered into a drawing for a Family Fun Basket which will include family fun passes to a surprise destination, a Chicfila gift card, and the next book in the Ralph series. One basket per grade level will be given away.
