Dayton Avenue School March Madness Reading Competition
Move over NCAA Dayton Avenue School has their own March Madness Reading Championship. Students are competing in a number of ways with one another. Students tally their reading minutes each night on a log which is collected every morning in March. The winning class each week participates in a basketball shoot-out in the gymnasium to earn extra points. Students, caught reading by members of the March Madness Committee receive a "Get Caught Reading" ticket that allows them to earn additional points as well. Lastly, we have weekly themed challenges that allow students to earn points for their class that include: College Shirt Day, Disney Day, Inside Out or Backwards Day, Crazy Sock Day, Western Day, Formal Day, and Sport Jersey Day! Dayton Avenue School is alive with a passion for reading. Keep up the good work.
