Read-a-Thon
The Liberty PTA will host the 4th annual Read-A-Thon from Thursday, October 8th through Thursday, October 22nd. This two-week event encourages students to read, either independently or with an adult, and to record their minutes each day. Families are asked to assist students in setting a reading goal, sign-off on minutes reported, and to provide encouragement throughout the event.
Families will also have the opportunity to support the effort by sharing the donation link with relatives and friends. The Read-A-Thon event link, along with additional details, will be provided in an upcoming message from PTA Vice President Carly Haas (vicepresident@liberypta.com ). Students will have the opportunity to win prizes while participating in the Read-A-Thon. Let's get to reading & raising!
