Reading is Money

 Together, the fourth and fifth-grade students at John Shields read 1,562 books from the 2022 Rebecca Caudill and Bluestem Award Lists. Students were encouraged to read books from both award lists.


After completing a book, students met with a book expert and took a quiz or Kahoot to show knowledge and understanding of the book while earning points towards awards and prizes. Students earned Boom Bags filled with goodies from local businesses. 

The John Shields LRC would like to give a special thank you to Genoa’s, Paisano’s, McDonald’s, Jimmy John’s, Portillos, Funway, and Pizza Hut for their continued support of our students and families. #READINGISMONEY
