 Accelerated Reader
Program

The Accelerated Reader Program continues this year. This program motivates students to read and does increase their reading levels. Competition is encouraged as students chalk up points for every book that they read.

All students who accumulate a designated number of points will be awarded certificates at the end of the school year. In addition, deserving students will have their names placed onto 12" stars and/or UFO disks for permanent display in the IMC. Students love to use this program because they receive immediate feedback with positive reinforcement.
