About this fundraiser:

Full details (how to collect funds, log minutes, etc) available at https://neelypto.org/blog/readathon.

Kids read a LOT of books at Neely. We want to encourage them to keep up the good work over the holiday break.

Every student who reads at least 5 hours (300 minutes) will earn a ThumbThing!

We have 2 grand prizes! Each full hour of reading beyond the 5 hours is worth ONE (1) entry into the drawing for the grand prize raffle. Primary (K-2) will be working toward a convertible laptop/tablet. Intermediate (3-6) will be entered into a second drawing for an XBox One/Echo Dot combo.

We have one special prize for the student who brings in the most money, too: a Nintendo Switch!

The student in each grade who logs the most minutes will receive a Barnes and Noble gift card. (7 winners)

Parents will track their child's reading in minutes.

A couple of rules to keep things fair:

All books must be previously unread by that child.

We would prefer that the books be close to their AR level in difficulty to ensure their reading progress continues.

Children who can read independently must read the books themselves. Kindergarten or other students who still need support can log minutes read with an adult's help or on their own.

Happy reading!
