Several SOMS classes participated in the 2nd annual Read for the Rockland Record challenge. The challenge is sponsored by The Rockland Boulders, Active International and Scholastic Book Fairs. Students participated over a three week period during the month of May. Many students were awarded prizes through the Rockland Boulders. Prizes included ticket vouchers for a Boulder’s home game, a plaque, Rockland Boulders T-Shirt and even rights to a first pitch at a Boulder’s home game with their name on the scoreboard! SOMS students read a total of 60,526 minutes in this short three week period!!!

Let’s hope they can keep it up over the summer months. Anyone can sign up for the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge here… http://www.scholastic.com/ups/campaigns/src-2015

It is a great compliment to any other summer reading programs students may sign up for over the summer. Go SUMMER Readers.
