Seward's Read Around 2024

The Seward Montessori School 2024 Read Around is here! 

What is the Read Around?

Read Around is our annual read-a-thon and school-wide celebration of reading. During this time Seward students are encouraged to read at home every day, recording this time on their Reading Log.  Learn more at Seward Read Around.

How much should I donate?

All students who participate in the Read Around will receive a 2024 Read Around t-shirt, and students who raise at least $50 will be put in a drawing for additional prizes. Please consider an amount that helps your student and other Seward students reach this goal. Our school goal for this fundraiser is $10,000.
