Highlands Elem. Announcements

The Houston Rockets, Whataburger, and participating libraries including HIGHLANDS ELEMENTARY have teamed up to promote the love of reading and increase literacy in our schools!

Please help us win the ROCKET’S READ NATION CHALLENGE this year by promoting reading and logging minutes in Beanstack on the Rocket’s Read Nation Challenge.

Spring Challenge

Timeframe: January 13, 2025 - February 14, 2025

Schools log the total reading minutes, and the top three schools with the most minutes will win a grand prize, which includes:

• An End of the Year Rally with special guests from the Houston Rockets!
• Free Library furniture
• Games and prizes

How to Participate

1. Have students log into their bean stack app on Monday to join the Rocket’s Read Nation challenge that starts Monday, January 13th!
2. Tell Students: Start logging ALL of your reading minutes at school and at home that include when you’re read to or when you read to someone else! Anytime to you read, it counts!

Come on Hawks! Let’s win a Houston Rocket’s pep rally for our school! Competition ends, Friday February 14th!
