Welcome to the Third Annual Cherry Crest Elementary PTSA Read-a-Thon!

Stay tuned!  Pledges will be accepted soon.  Check back the first week in February.

The Read-a-thon is the second major Cherry Crest PTSA fundraiser of the 2016-17 school year. It works like the Walk-a-thon held in the fall, except students read instead of walk. So, it’s like a Walk-a-thon for your brain!

Students gather sponsors to pledge money, read from February 17-26 (over mid-winter break), and earn prizes. Reading Logs and funds raised are to be turned in by Monday, March 6.

The Read-a-thon is a fun school-wide event that encourages students to use the reading skills they develop in the classroom in a way that helps to raise funds to support important PTSA-sponsored programs like Curriculum Enhancement (field trips!!) and teacher aides (extra hands in the classroom!!).

So this is an important fundraiser for our students and we hope you’ll participate!!

If you have any questions or are interested in helping, please contact Liz Dyor at readathon@cherrycrest-ptsa.org.

More information and packets will be coming home with students on Friday, February 10.
