Read Across America Day - March 2, 2012
In celebration of Read Across America Day and Dr. Seuss's birthday, we will be growing our very own Reading Garden in the Everett library. Every time a student reads a book between March 5-23, he/she can help grow our garden. Once a student finishes reading a book, he/she writes the title of the book on a "book flower", glues it on a popsicle stick, and plants it into the reading pot. Let's hope our Reading Garden will spring up many books!
Don't forget to record your reading minutes for our Million Minute challenge as well. Happy Reading!

Family Reading Night, sponsored by Jesse White, Secretary of State and State Librarian, and the Illinois Center for the Book, is an annual statewide event that encourages families to spend quality time reading together. This year's Family Reading Night is scheduled for November 17, 2011. The theme this year is Reading...Takes You Places. Students are encouraged to check out a book on this theme.
In support of this event, students may check out one additional book so that they can have a book to read with their family.

Million Minute Challenge
Everett students have been given a one million minute reading challenge. The goal is to have all Everett students read to reach our goal of one million minutes before the end of April 2012. Students will log the minutes they have read and then all minutes will be recorded on our reading chart outside the computer lab. Our teachers and staff are participating in this school-wide program as well.
Happy Reading, everyone!
