Bacchus
Elementary is a Ken Garff
Road to Success school!
20
minutes a day, 5 days a week
The Road to Success program
is a literacy initiative that truly motivates students to read everyday. The program is a collaboration of several
community business leaders who want to make a difference!
Here’s how it works:
- Four
(4) bikes are going to be given away at the end
of the school year to your school.
- Read
with your child for 20 minutes a day, 5 days a week.
- Every
100 minutes your student reads enters their name into the drawing for one
of the bikes. The more your student
reads, the better their chances.
- Teachers
will collect the reading minutes from students once a week.
- Students
can track their reading minutes at home.
Schools have been provided with a reading
chart for the students to bring home and keep on their fridge.
- Every
student will receive several reading reminders and incentives (homework
folder, pencil, eraser, ruler, and food prize incentives) during the
school year.
- Find
out who is running the program at your school, visit www.kengarffroad.com and click on
the “schools” tab. Then simply look
for your school’s name.
Purpose: To give teachers and parents a tool to
encourage our young students to learn and improve their reading skills, in
order to become great thinkers and enhance their scholastic careers.
