Masked Readers... UNITE! Let’s unite as readers with our annual Read-a-Thon sponsored by the Randolph Heights PTA. We'll keep updating this page with the latest Read Aloud videos and other fun things, so check back here often!
We smashed our goal of 100,000 minutes less than two weeks into our Read-a-Thon. As a school we read over 194,581 minutes. To celebrate our incredible success, students will be allowed to wear pajamas to school on Thursday, April 1. This is no April Fool’s Joke but please remember pajamas must be school appropriate and no slippers are allowed.
With our Read-a-Thon coming to an end, it’s also time to collect money from family/friends who made pledges. All donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. Any checks should be made out to “Randolph Heights PTA”.
WAY TO GO, READERS!
