Every minute of reading makes a difference! We encourage families to make time for reading outside of school to help students work toward their Accelerated Reader (AR) goals.
Whether it’s 15–20 minutes before bed, after supper, in the car, or on the weekend, those reading minutes add up!

Every Day Matters!
Regular attendance helps students stay connected, build strong academic skills, and feel successful at school. Missing just two days each month can add up to chronic absence and make it harder for students to keep up with learning.
Thank you, families, for helping make being at school, on time, every day a priority! 💜📚
