February is Reading Rally month at The Wilberforce School. During Reading Rally, we challenge ourselves to read more than usual, to meet new authors, and to discover different genres. This focused time of reading also reveals tremendous growth in our students as they develop stronger reading skills as well as a deeper love and appetite for reading.

Another goal of Reading Rally is to ask family and friends to sponsor our students. As students pledge to meet reading goals, sponsors pledge to donate money to our school. As you consider supporting the reading efforts of our students, know that you are investing in classrooms that reflect our love for learning, love for literature, and love for students.

This year, the funds raised through student efforts with Reading Rally will be designated towards purchasing books for the classroom libraries of our new Lower School classrooms. Join us in equipping our new classroom spaces with worthy books and encouraging our students in their commitment to reading. There are two ways to give. Donations are due Friday, March 31st.
