Summer Reading 2024 is in the books (pun intended!) Fifty-six students and a dozen parent volunteers had a blast this morning celebrating all the reading these students did over the summer. We played games, handed out prizes, and had a snack! Way to go, Clegern Readers, and thank you parent volunteers!

Did anyone #OutReadMrsFoster this summer? We stretched out a string to show how many minutes were read (1 mm per minute), and 14 people challenged Mrs. Foster. They read 62,614 minutes all together, but no one person outread Mrs. Foster's 14,567 minutes. That's still a lot of reading! Way to go, Clegern Cougars!
