RUNNING FEBRUARY 24TH - MARCH 7TH, 2025

In partnership with the CNSD, the PTO will be kicking off the District-Wide Read-A-Thon fundraiser on Monday, February 24th. Designed to promote literacy and foster a love of reading, your child(ren) can participate by reading each day, tracking their minutes, and obtaining donations from friends and family for their time.

Students are being asked to set a goal of at least 300 minutes over the course of 10 weekdays. That's only 30 minutes per day and reading with/for your child counts!

Flyers with specific details for setting up your child's reading tracker and their fundraising page have been sent home with your children. If you haven't yet activated their page, you can get started now with these 3 easy steps:

1) Activate your account at www.read-a-thon.com/readers.  Use code 3277850
2) Once activated, use the online tools to tell friends and family about our Read-A-Thon.
3) Track and log reading sessions from February 24 - March 7.

There's something for everyone!

• All participating students will be able to spend a percent of their donations at the Read-A-Thon Shop.

• Students who exceed their goal and reach at least 300 minutes will receive an Awards Certificate.

• Students exceeding 500+ minutes will receive an Awards Certificate and Medal.

• Students who Fundraise up to $75 will receive an Awards Certificate.

• Students who Fundraise $75+ will receive an Awards Certificate and Medal.

• The First Place Reader and First Place Fundraiser will receive a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card.

• The Class with Most Minutes Read and Most Money Raised in each school will receive a pizza party or bagel breakfast!

• Most importantly, the money raised goes back to our children through student activities, assemblies, and mini-grant funding!
