Accelerated Reading Program
All students in second, third, fourth and fifth grades are participating
in the Accelerated Reading program. This motivational reading program
has been proven to increase reading comprehension while students
earn points. This year's task is for students to read on-grade or
above level books and then complete a test. Points are earned on
the book level and number of questions they answer correctly.
