Read-a-thon 2022
The Rheem Read-a-thon 2022
Rheem’s annual literacy program, the Rheem Read-a-thon, will run from January 18 through February 15. During this program, parents will track their student’s weekly reading time. All types of reading count: silent reading, reading to others, in-class reading, and being read to by family or friends.
Track hours every Monday using an online Google Form.
100% PARTICIPATION IS OUR GOAL
The goal of the Read-a-thon is 100% participation, and the emphasis is on reading for fun! We have two school-wide incentives to encourage reading:
- If 90% participation is reached by Week 2, students will earn a Crazy Hair Day!
- If 100% participation is reached by the end of the read-a-thon, Pajama Day will be earned on Friday, April 1!
SPONSORSHIPS & DONATIONS
In addition to encouraging students to read, this program raises money for our school and this year will help to fund the new Teacher Resource Library.
