Oscar Larson's 4th Grade Read-a-Thon

Each February the Burroughs Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) sponsors the Read-a-Thon to raise money for Burroughs Community School. These funds provide financial support for field trips and a variety of enrichment materials for reading, math, science, art, music, physical education and much more.   The Read-a-Thon focuses on the amount of time a student reads. This year the students are challenged to collectively read 2 MILLION MINUTES.  If students read a total of 2 million minutes, Principal Bartl will get "slimed" at the Closing Ceremony and wear a unicorn costume for the remainder of the day!

Oscar is looking for pledge money for each minute he reads in February.  He is also able to collect a flat amount for the PTA too!

Reading is not yet Oscar's favorite activity but we are making progress!  Any support, funds or words of encouragement, is great!

Thanks so much!!

Oscar and family
