Library Programs

Accelerated Reader

     The Accelerated Reader program is a reading incentive program whereby students read specially marked books and then go to a computer to take a test on their comprehension of the story. Points for books are determined by its length and reading level.
     There is a bulletin board that is displayed to show students who are in the 25, 50, and 100 point club. These students also receive a "Bear Tag." We also have a monthly schoolwide competition. The top primary class (K-2nd) and top intermediate class (3rd- 5th) receive a class set of books. Teachers may aslo hold their own incentives within thier classroom.
