 Students Read More Than 2 million minutes photo
On Monday, June 20 the final Revved Up To Read event of the year was held. The event kicked off with Elementary Media Specialist Sue Wolf, Principal Alicia Henry and others riding into the gym on mini "chopper" bikes. This year F-F elementary students read a total of 2,049,003 minutes, exceeding the goal of 2 million set at the beginning of the year. To honor their achievements several prizes were raffles off including Wal-Mart gift certificates, duffle bags, and of course, the bikes.

The Revved Up To Read program is an offshoot from the school's Reading First initiative, which is designed to help all children read at or above grade level by the time they are in third grade. Click here to learn more about Reading First.
