Readers Are Leaders

Posted on June 26, 2019 by Ms. Watt | 2 comments

Every year we celebrate students who achieve 200 nights of Bookbeast Reading. In recent years Mrs. Roberts has introduced a new 250 nights level and it takes a special student with great dedication and responsibility to achieve this. What an awesome accomplishment. Way to go Division 8 250 Night Readers! I’m so proud of you!

Nelson celebrated reading last week with several different events.
