Would you like to win an all-expense paid trip to Walt Disney Theme Park for your family? We'd love to make that dream come true!
Our school is holding a Read-A-Thon Fundraiser, and it's a fantastic opportunity for your child to raise money while enjoying their favorite books.
As a special bonus, any child who sends 10 text messages through their dashboard to promote our fundraiser will automatically be entered into a nationwide drawing for a magical trip for four to Walt Disney Theme Park.
We'll select one lucky winner each season from all the Read-A-Thons held during that season.

Read-A-Thons actually get your reader excited about reading, and it allows friends and family to encourage your child to read even more.
Our Read-A-Thon starts Friday, February 13, 2026.
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 encourage you to activate your reader’s account today by clicking on https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/kiHpnG/1?utm=email and following the simple instructions.
We've chosen Read-A-Thon because it will not take up much of your time, gives your child a reason to read, and helps develop stronger reading skills.
We hope EVERYONE participates.
Thanks so much,
Whitefield PTA
