ANGELS READ & GIVE Read-A-Thon is HERE!

January 26th – February 7th

Registration Starts – Friday, January 24th
Read-a-Thon Goal – $20,000

OUR ANNUAL SCHOOL FUNDRAISING GOAL is to raise $100,000 from our 3 Key Fundraisers in the 2019-20 school year!

We are raising funds for the following projects!

  • Air Conditioning FINAL Phase
  • Mini STREAM LABS throughout the building.
  • Next Generation Education & Learning Programs
  • Fine Arts Studio
  • Sensory Resource Room
  • Tuition Assistance
  • Principal Programs

The list above outlines the projects we hope to accomplish this year to strengthen our school and enrich your child(ren’s) learning and experience. Angels Read & Give also funds the PTU student life programming.

ALL Read-A-Thon information will be provided to your student(s) on FRIDAY, JANUARY 24th.

We encourage every student to participate in our Read-A-Thon to help support our school. At school daily, students will read 10-15 minutes during morning time, library time or free time to achieve their daily minutes. Please encourage your students to read at home every night, too!  Make it a class activity by having class time and group reading by bringing out the books.

BE CREATIVE with your reading time!

Student SIGN UP!

It is easy to sign up a student.   Go to the website: www.read-a-thon.com.
