Exciting Raffle Culminates August Reading Club!!!
The end of the August reading club at Gratts Elementary School was a special
one as a fun filled raffle ended the day. Each child attending the August
reading club not only received a book of their very own for attending but
also received a ticket allowing them to participate in the raffle which
followed. What were the prizes? Grand prizes consisted of a complete
computer system--computer, monitor, and printer! Needless to say, the prizes
were awarded to two very excited Gratts students. Runner-up prizes of two
new hardcover Harry Potter books were also presented to extremely enthusiastic students.
The raffle ended another very successful reading club at Gratts Elementary School.
The August theme of "feelings and emotions" allowed children to learn important
lessons about handling their emotions while they learned the joy of reading.
Over 50 volunteers along with an important group of teachers and administrators
made the day an enjoyable and educational one for almost 150 children.
