It’s Time for
The 20th Annual Read-A-Thon!
Students warm up with a good book during the cold days of winter
to raise money to support field trips and school activities.
HELP US FUNDRAISE $20,000 for 20 years of Reading
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS…
WHO
Hull students at the Jacobs Elementary School and Memorial Middle School, grades K-8.
WHAT
Every student is engaged in literacy as much as they can! READ books, magazines, and newspapers! Listen to audio books or sit with a grown-up or older sibling while they read aloud!
Each student will receive a Read-A-Thon pledge sheet to bring home and begin collecting pledges. 99Pledges an online fundraising site can be personalized for your reader(s). We encourage students to get pledges from relatives and neighbors. Sponsors may pledge an amount for each minute read (ex. $.25 per minute) or a flat amount for participation in the Read-A-Thon (ex. $25).
