Read-A-Thon: January 21-28
Get ready to read, Easterly Parkway! All students are encouraged to take part in the Read-A-Thon, where students receive points for reading 20 minutes a day, with a chance to earn extra points for reading books in different categories and finding golden tickets in library books. Students who participate will receive $5 in Scholastic Dollars to spend at our Scholastic book fair on 2/9-13 (no minimum point total needed–Just be sure to turn in your form at the end of the week)! The 10 students who earn the most points will earn $10 in Scholastic Dollars and have their names read over the loudspeaker. The class that has the most points wins an ice cream party and a special prize, and the class with the greatest participation wins an ice cream party with a special guest. Download extra book log here.
