Read-a-Thon! Let’s go on a reading adventure!

2023 Read-a-Thon is here! Students will get a chance to show their love of reading and our school as they ask for pledges, then record how many minutes they spend reading from March 3 – March 12.

Prizes will be given based on participation and total minutes spent reading. Time that students read alone or aloud to their parents as well as being read to all counts! 

IMPORTANT DATES:

  • March 3 or before: Download the pledge sheet and get pledges!
  • March 3-12: Record daily reading minutes.  
  • March 13-20: Reading log and donation collection week.

Donations may be made online or with the envelopes and pledge sheets sent home. Pledge envelopes can be dropped off in the morning at school with one of the volunteers.

If you are choosing the online option, please submit your total reading time here. so we can track participation.

Donate online at charlemagnepto.org/donate. Please use the PayPal option (credit cards accepted and no account required) and make sure to note “Read-a-Thon” in the special instructions box.
