Accelerated
The
Accelerated Reader Program is a special reading program available for all of
our students in grades 1-3. The student reads one of the Accelerated Reader
books in the library and takes a short comprehension test about the book. It is
recommended that the test be taken within a day or two of completing the chosen
book. If you have any questions about the Accelerated Reading
Program at our school you may contact Keri Perkins at
770-537-4352.
