All About our Read-A-Thon
Why a Read-A-Thon?
- We are raising money by putting books into the hands of our students.
- There is NOTHING to sell!
- Friends and family members love giving to help children read.
- Our classrooms need more books! What better way to make money for books than by reading books?
Where will the money go?
- PTC will keep some of the funds for our general fund that is used to purchase a variety of things for teachers and students throughout the year.
- The rest will be divided and given directly to each classroom teacher. They will be able to purchase leveled books for their students. Once that need is filled, they will be able to purchase other hands on items for their classrooms. They get to use it on their biggest needs. This allows the funds to directly benefit every single student on campus!
PRIZES
- Students will get to shop on the online store with a percentage of their donations.
- The biggest earning class will get a POPSICLE party!
- Keep track of what your child reads on their Six Flags Read to Succeed form and earn a free ticket to Six Flags!
How does it work?
- Set up your child's account
- Share your child's account through Facebook, emails, or texts and try to get as many donations as possible.
- Donations are a one time thing, not by minutes or days read.
- Your child should pledge to read at least 10 minutes a day everyday during the Read-A-Thon for their donations.
- The Read-A-Thon goes from Monday, February 11th - Friday, February 22nd.
What if I lost my child's code?
- No worries! Let your child's teacher know, or reach out to one of the PTC officers and we can find it for you!
- Accounts can be activated at ANY time during the Read-A-Thon! :o)
HAPPY READING!!
