Middle School Summer Reading Program
6th - 8th graders can receive a raffle ticket for every five hours read per week! You could win some fun prizes such as a fast food lunch brought to you on a school day, a dozen homemade chocolate cookies, carpool king or queen, gift cards, and many more!
Here's how it works: Choose a good book and read for 45 minutes per day. Reading your two required summer books counts! (see the options below) You may also earn an extra ticket for every 5 hours of reading time. Have a parent sign your raffle tickets at the end of each week this summer. You may put your raffle tickets in the prize buckets of your choice during the first week we return to school.
