Remember to Read!!!


Here are some 2012 fun facts from Race to Read's website:

1 - In 2012, elementary schools in Moretown, Warren, Braintree, Fayston, Williamstown, Roxbury, and Waitsfield participated in Race to Read. In 2013, Waterbury will be added to this list! :)

2 - In those seven schools, over 5,000 books were read specifically for the challenge!

3 - Williamstown Elementary had a 71% completion rate. That means that almost 3/4 of the entire school read 15 books. Williamstown was also the LARGEST school!

4 - The most popular book author was Dr. Seuss. His books were read almost 200 times.

5 - Over 300 children signed the hood of Troy Kingsbury's #39 Mustang race car!

Remember - Race to Read papers are due May 3rd!!!
Encourage your child to read every day so s/he can earn this unique and exciting experience!
