A few weeks ago, Monroe held the annual Read-A-Thon fundraiser! To help students meet new, incredible reading goals, some awesome incentives were put in place for various "minute marks" during the two weeks. The top minute incentive maxed out at 500+ minutes of reading logged per student for the two week time span. These are the students who achieved 500 minutes or higher!! They were awarded with a 45 minute extra recess at Fairview Park, along with a new pair of sunglasses! We think they look pretty spiffy! Great job, readers!
