The Sioux Falls School District is excited to partner with Siouxland Libraries again for Everybody Reads! From March 13-31, students, staff, parents, and community members are encouraged to track how many books they read. The goal is to create a community of readers ages 0 –100! Starting March 13, you will see a galaxy begin to appear in the library. For the next three weeks, student art and yellow stars will appear to celebrate reading progress. Once your student(s) completes a book, they will receive a star to add to the galaxy. We look forward to a bright galaxy of student success!
Wondering how you can get involved as a parent? Encourage your student to read at home! As mentioned, this is a community-wide reading initiative. Anytime YOU finish a book throughout the month of March, we would encourage you to stop by your local library to add your own star to the growing galaxy and record your progress at www.sf.k12.sd.us/page/everybody-reads
Thank you for your support and let’s get reading!
