Reading Counts
Roosevelt Elementary kicks their Reading Counts program off with a bang this year. Last year Roosevelt students averaged a little over 90,000 points, and this year they have set their goal to 95,000 points. Roosevelt Librarian Jymie Lilley said, “After the first week of school the students have already averaged 4,245 points.” Reading Counts is when the students read books then take quizzes on computers. When students pass the quiz they earn points. The harder the book, the more points the student will receive. Pictured is Roosevelt Elementary fourth grade student Kammi Keehl taking a Reading Counts quiz.
