πŸ“šπŸŽƒ October β€œHallow-Read” Challenge CompleteπŸŽƒπŸ“š

We’re so proud of our 14 Rangers who completed the October Hallow-Read challenge through Beanstack! These dedicated readers spent the month logging their minutes and book titles, earning multiple badges and virtual tickets for some fun rewards.

πŸ‘ Each student received a certificate to Cane’s, and congratulations to Aria, Everett, Jarin, and Cecilia whose tickets were drawn for an extra special reward β€” lunch in the courtyard or a special treat of their choice.

πŸ‚ Our November β€œRead Grateful” Challenge is now underway. Keep reading and logging those minutes, Rangers β€” we can’t wait to see who rises to the challenge this month! If you have any questions about Beanstack, please feel free to e-mail Mrs. Lupton in the library. πŸ’›πŸ“–
