Blackshear is excited to launch our new Reading Challenge for Grades 3–5! We are encouraging students to develop a love of reading by choosing books they enjoy and reading them from beginning to end at home. Students will track their completed books on a reading log and earn exciting rewards along the way, including bookmarks, a spot on our Reading Wall of Fame, a pajama pass, and even Lunch Bunch with Leadership!
Families can support this initiative by setting aside time for reading each day and talking with their children about their books. Let's work together to build a community of lifelong readers!
