• ROCKY RIDGE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL...

    is having a Read-a-thon this year!

    Our Read-a-thon is December 5, 2022 - January 30, 2023

     

    We've chosen "Read-a-thon" because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.  We hope EVERYONE participates, because Read-a-thons get our readers excited about reading and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child(ren) to read even more.

     

    Instructions should be coming home soon (if not already) on how to activate your reader's personal page. This is where you will be able to view and record their progress.  We encourage you to activate your reader’s account today by clicking on https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/RiKflT/1 and following the simple instructions.

     

    Please be sure to watch these videos and

    email Ms. Lamar with any questions at: tlamar@bethelsd.org
