February Reading Calendars Now Available

January certainly flew by, and now we already are starting to plan classroom Valentine's Day parties and buy valentines to hand out. Where has the time gone?

Even though we are in the shortest month of the year and have valentines on our mind, we need to keep students motivated about reading outside of school! We hope they've gotten into the good habit of grabbing a book in the evening and logging some minutes for Discovery's Million Minute Reading Challenge.

The Discovery PTA is confident that the students will succeed in hitting the million-minute mark and has already started planning for our fun-filled celebratory event on the evening of Friday, May 1. Students have three months to go, and every minute counts!

The February calendars will be coming home in backpacks this week, but it's also located below if you want to print it out. They are due back to teachers on Monday, March 2, which will also be our Million Minutes Family Reading Night at the school (as well as Read Across America Day and Dr. Seuss' birthday).

The top reader for each class in February will receive a $10 gift certificate for Discovery's Spring Book Fair in March.
