Summer Reading Initiative (K-2)
It is very important that students consistently spend time reading over the summer break so they can continue to use the literacy skills learned during the school year. To help encourage students to read, we have created a summer reading program each year.
This summer, Kelly Elementary students can participate in “Camp Read-A-Lot”, our 2022 Summer Reading Challenge!
Each student has received a bag filled with camping themed goodies including a pencil, eraser, mini notebook, bookmark, and of course- BOOKS! A few extra bags are available at the Kelly office while supplies last.
To participate, complete the reading bingo sheet or the camping coloring log. If you are feeling really excited about reading this summer, complete both! Bring the completed form back to school the first week to claim your prizes!
Have a great summer, and keep reading s’more books!
Students moving to Linntown next year will participate in any Linntown reading program that is offered. Thank you for your continued support and enjoy your summer adventures.
