Read Across America

Now - March 1st



The month of March is National Reading Month, and Aristoi students are readers!

To promote this special event, students may participate in Reading Bingo at home, so families can take part in the fun. It is a great (and optional) way for you and your child to celebrate reading at home.

Bingo cards and reading logs were sent home in student folders February 22nd.
