It's time for the Scranton Elementary School Read-a-thon!
Read-a-thon promises to be a fun, exciting journey that starts Sunday February 27, 2022. We will get your children excited about reading.
We know you have limited time but want the best education for your child. Thatβs why we hope everyone will activate their reader's account as soon as possible. This is where you can record and view your reader's progress.
We encourage you to activate your readerβs account today by clicking on https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/ZeqPuk/1 and following the simple instructions.
Thanks so much,

Scranton Elementary School has decided to hold a Read-a-thon again this year!
Read-a-thons get your reader excited about reading and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child to read even more.
Our Read-a-thon starts Sunday February 27, 2022.
About one week before our Read-a-thon starts we will send home instructions on how to activate your reader's personal page. This is where you will be able to view and record their progress.
We've chosen Read-a-thon because it will not take much of your time, gives your child a reason to read and helps in the development of stronger reading skills.
We hope EVERYONE participates.
Thanks so much,
Scranton Elementary School
