    • Reader's Read Bookstore-- The goal of this program is to foster a love of reading and ensure that all students have acccess to new books to grow their at-home library.  We want our students to have good books to read during their breaks away from school.  Three times a year (before Winter, Spring, and Summer breaks), students get to come pick out brand new books that are at a just right level for them.  Over the course of the year, our older students get 7 chapter books and our younger kids get 12 books. This program is sustained through Title I funds, our PTO and individual donors.
