Magnolia READS Kick-off
On Monday, April 11, students at East Side and Central Elementary Schools will once again embark on a special project, an all-school book club and financial literacy project called Magnolia READS. The acronym READS stands for Reading Empowers All District Students.
Each kindergarten through fifth grade family will receive a copy of the same book—Lunch Money by Andrew Clements.
Families are encouraged to make time to participate in this fun and worthwhile family activity. Reading aloud at home with your children is a valuable experience that better prepares your child to be an effective reader.
While students at the elementary schools will read the book, other district students will also be involved in this project.
For the third year, Farmers Bank & Trust Co. is collaborating with the District on the Magnolia READS project. Farmers purchased the book Lunch Money for all the students and staff in grades K-5. Economics Arkansas also partners in the project. They helped supply the students and staff with resources to use while reading the book.
The District extends our deepest appreciation to Farmers Bank & Trust for the donation to purchase the Magnolia READS books and to Economics Arkansas for supplying the supplemental resources and bookmarks for all students.
The yearly Magnolia READS (Reading Empowers All District Students) financial literacy initiative kicked off today for students at East Side and Central Elementary Schools. Students in kindergarten through fifth grades will read Lunch Money by Andrew Clements. The District greatly appreciates Farmers Bank & Trust for purchasing the books for the third consecutive year for students, faculty, and staff. Our deepest appreciation also goes to Economics Arkansas for providing bookmarks for the students, and resources and activities for the teachers.
