Read for the Stars
Harriet Bishop Elementary School
The annual PTO Read-A-Thon is our biggest and only school-wide fundraising event, which celebrates reading, helps raise funds, and directly involves each and every Harriet Bishop student. By participating in the Read-A-Thon, students will have the opportunity to earn fun rewards for themselves and the school!
- Every student that submits their completed Reading Bingo will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win some cool Harriet Bishop gear! Drawings will happen each week during the Read-A-Thon.
- We also encourage every family to consider their ability to help with the fundraiser.
Our 2024 goal is $15,000, and every dollar raised will go towards earning additional school-wide prizes!
The Harriet Bishop PTO, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, funds programs that directly support each student and affords students opportunities that are no longer funded by the school district. The funds raised through the Read-A-Thon pay for things at school such as: 5th Grade BizTown experience, field trips, flexible classroom seating, Artist-in-Residence, indoor recess toys, Kindness Retreat, STEM tools, 5th grade send-off, scholarships for events and services (e.g. yearbook, directory), and more!
Any and all donations are appreciated!
