Clark County School District recently issued the following announcement.
CCSD is encouraging all students to take advantage of the summer break and enjoy a great book. Parents and students may share pictures on social media of them reading their favorite book using #ReadWithMeCCSD and be eligible to win an Amazon gift card until July 31, 2022.
We encourage students to maintain and build on their reading skills over the summer months. Otherwise, students risk summer learning loss, also known as the “summer slide.” Remember, reading includes much more than just books. Here are 100 ways to make reading more enjoyable.
To participate in the Reading Photo Contest, post photos, including the student’s first name and CCSD school, on social media (Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook – settings must allow public view) using the hashtag #ReadWithMeCCSD and your photo could be selected to win a prize!
- Post a picture of your child or family reading in an interesting place
- Post a picture of your child reading something interesting, other than a book
- Post a picture of your child reading to a sibling, pet, or other interesting friends
CCSD is also proud to partner with the public libraries in Southern Nevada on their Summer Challenge.
Your local library offers a variety of online resources, activity ideas, and books to keep all students in Grades Pre-Kindergarten-12 engaged and entertained all summer long. Students can earn points for reading and completing other fun activities.
Students receive prizes for completing each level and are entered to win awesome grand prizes. The CCSD school with the most student participation in their Summer Challenge will receive a trophy and recognition.
