As part of our special celebration, we will be working together as a Hicks family to beat a pretty BIG goal, reading 100,000 minutes as a school, but we KNOW we can do it! For every 10 minutes your child reads or is read to at night, color in a piece of their dragon page and submit completed pages to your child's teacher. Each week there will be classroom winners that get fun prizes and at the end of the month, some students will get to PIE MRS. GEE IN THE FACE! Check out the Reading Month letter and calendar for more details. Don't miss out on all of the fun! Let's Get Reading!
The kickstart was a gigantic success. We are so excited to see our newest innovating Hornets come to Hicks next school year.
