The Read a Thon will run from February 1-February 14. This is the biggest fundraiser of the year!

Students should log the number of minutes they read at home each evening and then return it the following Tuesday. A new reading log will go home in next week’s Wednesday folder.  Each Tuesday, we ask that teachers paperclip all reading logs and place them in the PTO mailbox. The PTO will log the minutes read and display class results. Students can share their fundraising link with family and friends.

Classes will win the following prizes:

  • 5,000 minutes—Bring a small stuffed animal to school
  • 10,000 minutes—Popcorn Party
  • 20,000 minutes—Extra Recess

When the school reads 100,000 minutes, the whole school earns a Pajama Day!

Let’s get reading and earn some money for Mason Crest! Funds will be used to provide school supplies for every student, finance field trips and assemblies, and for PTO sponsored teacher appreciation events.

Thank you for your support!

Happy Reading!
