The Reading Spotlight is a fun and engaging way to celebrate and encourage a love of reading across our school community. This spotlight recognizes individuals who are diving into new books and taking time to grow through reading.

Student Reading Spotlight
Students are invited to write the title of a book they’ve started on the bulletin board in the Commons. Names will be chosen at random from the board, and students who are selected will be recognized with a candy bar for making reading a priority.

Community Reading Spotlight
Community members are encouraged to sign the board as well, helping create a shared culture of reading beyond the classroom. If a community member is selected from the board, they will receive a free drink from the concession stand at a home game as a thank-you for supporting and promoting reading.
