Welcome to our annual celebration of reading, the YISS 2018 Elementary School Read-A-Thon. Read-A-Thon is organized as a joint effort between the PTO and ES administrators at YISS. Our goal is to develop a lifelong love of learning and promote the enjoyment of reading through a variety of fun and educational activities. The theme this year is "Reading is Out of This World!" and will begin on Monday, February 19 and will end on Sunday, March 11.
We want to encourage our children to read joyfully. All the events during this year’s Read-A-Thon circle around the theme with prizes awarded for all participants. We want to encourage students to grow as readers in as many ways as we can. We will continue to carry on some of our RAT traditions and enjoy some new ones as well! And yes, if the elementary school students can collectively read a total of 772,018 minutes, Mrs. Roll, Ms. Falkner and Mr. Benedict have agreed to a pie throw at the Wrap-Up Assembly!
