Boomer, Bruce the Moose, and Chase made a special appearance at Margaret Chase Smith on Friday for its assembly. They were excited to introduce a new baseball-themed reading challenge to encourage a love for reading among MCS students. Just like baseball requires practice and dedication, so does reading. By participating in this challenge, your child will have fun and develop essential literacy skills. Each student will receive a permission slip to sign up. Students track the number of minutes they have read in 15-minute increments. After they have completed four hours of reading, they will receive two free tickets to a Sanford Mainers game! Students must return the permission slip by April 1st to receive their reading log.
