Gifford Grade School extends a heartfelt THANK YOU to our school community! We're incredibly proud of our readers and grateful for your support, which made our fundraiser a success. Our students had a wonderful time reading. We can't wait to host another Read-A-Thon next year!
The Read-a-Thon ends this Sunday, so it's not too late to log more minutes! As a school, we've read more than 20,000 minutes 📚
As one last encouragement to read even more, the class with the highest average of minutes read per student will earn a pizza party 🍕
We are very appreciative for all the support that has helped make our Read-a-Thon successful!
