It Pays to Read

Submitted by carol.day on

Hobble Creek students surpassed their reading goal and found out that it does Pay to Read at an assembly March 31.  The PTA organized an reading incentive program that came to an exciting conclusion.  At the assembly celebrity guest included Jeff Griffin, Greek Para-Olympian, five basket ball players from Springville High and Maple Mountain High, and Screech the Hawk.  

Reading minute tickets were put into a drawing for books, water bottles, posters, and Kindles.  Some of the tickets drawn gave students the chance to shoot  baskets with the help of teachers and the guest stars for cash.  Mr. Johnson counted out cash for each basket.
