Our students did it! They collectively read more than 1000 books, 1049 books to be exact, from June through the first week of January in our third annual Readathon.
Congratulations to our top readers in each grade:
6th grade
Emily Friedman -- 37 books
Melanie Heney -- 35 books
Gabriela Sanchez -- 30 books
7th gradeMary Kate Guma -- 121 books
Clarissa Seiz -- 33 books
Thomas Ruhl -- 14 books
8th grade
Greg Caso -- 167 books
Justin Wei -- 52 books
Amanda Caso -- 42 books
Our overall top three readers were Greg Caso, Mary Kate Guma and Justin Wei. They will have the honor of having their names engraved on the "Super Readers" plaque in the library. I will also do my best to not totally embarrass them at a town meeting, but give them the credit they deserve.
The eighth grade will be treated to an ice cream party at the end of the yer, courtesy of our fearless leader, Dr. John Christie. Thanks to all who participated and helped us achieve our goal.
For those of you who are inspired to read by the tale of this amazing feat, check out some great book reviews at Curled Up with a Good Kid's Book.
