Shepardson Read-A-Thon 2026

Shepardson Stars, assemble! Our Read-A-Thon runs October 1st through the 30th, helping students build daily reading habits while raising money for Shepardson Elementary.

How it works: Students earn 1 point for each day they read or are read to for at least 20 minutes outside of school. Students can earn prizes by collecting points, and by enlisting their family, friends, and neighbors to sponsor them in their reading journeys.
