Another reading program going on currently, sponsored by the Masons, is the Bikes for Books program.
This program runs from January to May, and students earn a ticket for each book they read. The tickets go into a drawing for each class. Books read above the student's reading level or over 5 Accelerated Reader points earn extra tickets. The drawing will be held at the end of May, and two lucky students from each class will win a Kindle!
