This year the Petty Bobcat Boosters are giving Petty families a reading challenge!

Help us raise funds for what we hope to be the biggest fundraiser of the year…

Petty Bobcat Boosters Read-A-Thon

Students can raise money by asking family and friends to sponsor them in our Read-A-Thon. Sponsors can pledge a donation per minute of reading, or a fixed contribution.

100% of money donated during the Read-a-thon fundraiser will go directly towards creating an outdoor learning space for our Petty students and staff!

How it Works:

• Each student will receive a bookmark per week where they will record their minutes for that week. The week will run from Friday through Thursday.

• The students read, read, read all week, record their minutes, and turn their bookmarks in each FRIDAY morning to their classroom bin.

• Minutes you can count: Reading for fun, reading for homework, being read to, listening to an audiobook, reading to a pet,....if you are reading, it counts!

• Students will be rewarded with a bracelet as they reach their next goal.

• Bracelet goals are between 100 and 5000 minutes. Students can wear their bracelets throughout the Read-a-Thon. They can show off their swag for reading so much!
