The Boyd Bobcats' August Edition
#RACE2READ
Atlanta Public Schools is excited to continue its district-wide reading campaign, Race2Read! The district is partnering with Urban League of Greater Atlanta to challenge students, teachers, staff, parents, community members and business partners to read 20 minutes daily to help us collectively reach 10 million minutes of reading. You can log how many minutes you read by logging onto Beanstack. Our school's goal is to read 470,000 minutes. Together, we can be our Boyd Best by building a school that reads!
Happy reading! 🤓
FREE Atlanta Hawks Tickets for Reading!
The Atlanta Hawks Check It Out Reading Challenge has officially started and runs until September 1. When students K-12 check out and read five books, they earn one (1) FREE youth ticket to a select Hawks game during the 2024-2025 season. When students complete the Challenge, they need to visit https://www.nba.com/hawks/community/checkitout and have a parent or guardian fill out the registration form. An adult ticket must be purchased along with the youth ticket. Participants will begin receiving their tickets after October 31.
