3rd Grade Reading Camp

One of our favorite traditions in 3rd grade is having Reading Camp! On Friday, May 22nd from 9:00am-11:30am we spend the whole morning doing activities that involve, you guessed it, reading! We do this event on the courtyard in the back of the school. In order for this fun event to happen, we are looking for parent volunteers in a couple of ways. We need volunteers to help us run the event, and also some tents and canopies to make it really feel like camping! If you can help out, we would love for you to sign up here. Please let us know if you have any questions. 

Sign Up for Reading Camp Here
