Students read almost 750,000 minutes and raised close to $4,000 for the PTA during the 2012 Glenwood Read-A-Thon. Because they met their goal of 500,000 minutes, the top readers in each class played a game of basketball with and against their teachers, with the student-led team coming out on top.
Ms. Ouyang’s class won a $100 gift certificate from Flyleaf Books for their average of 2,331 minutes per student – about 39 hours of reading per student in only two weeks. Ms. Sheer’s, Ms. West’s and Mr. Leak’s classes were close behind.
