Read Across America Week is celebrated from March 2nd to 6th — it begins on the birthday of the beloved author, Dr. Seuss, who many schools are celebrating with a spirited dress-up week. The entire month of March, in fact, is dedicated to reading. This week, we'll be featuring a different PHS student doing a daily read aloud that our schools can share and watch with their students. First up is IsaBella Miller, a member of the Preston High School's Lady Knight's Basketball Team and journalist-to- be. She chose to read the book titled, My Tooth is Loose.

Last Week's Reading Rockstars

Next week is Read Across America Week! We will have themes each day. We will also be handing out books and prizes from our Book Blast on Monday!
Are you logging your reading minutes on Beanstack? If you don't know how, Mrs. Rembold has posted directions on Dojo, or you can reach out to your child's teacher. The app is very easy to use once downloaded on to your smartphone. Or you child can log on with their laptop or iPad using Clever. We are 1% away from Trailblazer status which earns our school a $100 gift card we can use for new books for the library and prizes for students who participate. Please help us reach this goal! We'd love to have 75% of our students reading each day with their families!
