SIX FLAGS READING PROGRAM
We are excited to announce our Six Flags reading program starts this week. The program will be online this year, not on paper. You will receive an information sheet from your child’s homeroom teacher (check Purple Folder) with the website and special code to access their account. From now until March 1st, students can log their 6 hours of reading for fun to receive a free ticket to Six Flags next summer. Have fun reading!
