Students that read at least three of the nominated books and pass the corresponding AR tests with an 80% or better by the end of February will be allowed to vote for the Rebecca Caudill Young Readers' Book Award.

When you return to school in August, you can take the AR tests and begin earning your prizes. You can continue to read more throughout the year. If you have any questions, please see Ms. Hardesty. Happy Reading!
