TROY INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL has decided to hold a Read-A-Thon this year!

Read-A-Thons actually get your reader excited about reading and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child to read even more. We have planned 2 weeks of fun and competition for the students.

Proceeds from the Read-A-Thon will be used to directly support enriching opportunities and resources for our students and staff. Funds raised will help provide additional activities for students to enjoy on Field Day, classroom resources and materials for students, and high-interest reading materials to further encourage a love of reading. In addition, proceeds will support our PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) initiatives and help fund engaging student assemblies throughout the year.

Our Read-A-Thon starts Monday March 2, 2026 and runs through March 13. The first week of our Read-A-Thon is Read Across America week.

About one week before our Read-A-Thon starts we will send home instructions on how to activate your reader's personal page. This is where you will be able to view and record their progress.

We encourage you to activate your reader’s account today by clicking on:

https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/3538343335/1?utm=email

and following the simple instructions.

We've chosen Read-A-Thon because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.

We hope EVERYONE participates.

Thanks so much,

Oh parents of Troy, both near and afar,
We’re calling on heroes — yes, you are the star!
On Wednesday, March 18th, from 3 until 8,
There’s a blood drive event you won’t want to be late!

Three lives with one gift! Oh, what could be greater?
A moment of kindness — a lifesaving later.

To sign up and choose a convenient time,
Visit redcrossblood.org — it’s easy! Sublime!
Clickity-clack and you’ll soon see
How simple a hero signup can be!

And students whose parents answer the call
Will be cheered on announcements for one and for all.
A “Pint-Size Hero” — hear the applause!
With TWO Shore Bucks earned for the generous cause!

But more than the Bucks, more than the cheer,
You’re giving someone another year.
Watch London’s story — just three minutes long —
How blood donors helped keep her brave and strong.

So circle the date, make plans, don’t delay!
Be someone’s sunshine on March 18th day.
From 3 until 8 — come give from the heart,
And play in this lifesaving, Seussian part!

Please see the survey monkey below and vote on who you believe should receive the Potts award for the Troy PTA. We will be closing it Feb 28th!

The Potts Award was initially awarded to Linda Potts in recognition of her long- term involvement in a variety of positions serving our Avon Lake PTA Units. Her dedication and achievements denote her true interest in the welfare of our students and our community. She is known as a true PTA Advocate. We continue to recognize outstanding PTA members in each individual unit for their dedication and achievements, similar to those modeled before by Linda Potts.
