Our school continues to use the District’s Comprehensive Reading Plan
For the 2006 – 2007 school year. In grades 1 – 7 students are required
to read at least five books each nine week grading period, participate in a
designated 30 – minute independent reading period at school and read at home for
30 minutes each day. Parents/Guardians or family members may read to
Prekindergarten and Kindergarten children and ask them questions about the
stories to help reinforce comprehension
