March 2- 17th

The goal of the READ WITH THE PACK! Read-a-thon & Fundraiser is to promote literacy, celebrate the joy of reading, and raise money for Woodburn PAWS' ongoing programming!

To participate, students create and submit a reading goal. We'll be sending these home or print one out here. Their goal can be to read a certain amount of minutes per day, a certain number of books or pages, or they can commit to trying to read a new genre, etc. You don't need the form to get started--they can set their goal and complete the form when it gets home! 

If students are able to raise funds, they then can share their reading goal with potential donors as they collect contributions. Students may collect cash or check donations OR donations can be made online at woodburnpaws.org. There will be an envelope attached to the reading goal form that come homes that you can use to return cash or check donations to school (Donations are tax-deductible; please make checks payable to Woodburn PAWS).

All reading goals and donations must be returned to school (or donated online) by 3/17/25 to count toward prizes.  

Each student who accomplishes their reading goal and turns it in by the deadline will receive a READ WITH THE PACK! bookmark and be recognized on Woodburn's Wolfpack News.

In addition, students who have teacher recommendation* OR raise the following amounts will receive:

• $10+ receive a backpack brag tag
• $50+ receive above prizes and a student experience to turn Principal Parman into a human ice cream sundae on April 11th
• $100+ receive above prizes & a $10 gift card to spend at the Woodburn's spring book fair and a photo of the student with their favorite book included in the Wolfpack News
• $200+ receive above prizes & a $20 gift card to spend at Woodburn’s spring book fair and a Student Librarian Display of their photo and two favorite books at our Woodburn Library
• $300+ receive above prizes & a Reserved Parking Spot at the Spring Showcase

 *Teachers and staff can also award prizes to students who are working hard on reading and participating in the read-a-thon without fundraising.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! HAVE A GREAT TIME READING!
