Grade 4

Book-It

Challenge

Amanda Kelly our current Miss Massachusetts came to St. Agatha School on Friday, February 26, to accept a donation to the Make-a-Wish Foundation. Grade Four Student's at St. Agatha School decided to have a "Book-It" challenge to raise money as part of our school's mission to contribute to those in need through social outreach. With the help of Mrs. Mary-Ann Casinelli, Miss. Jen Concannon, and Miss. Nancy Chapman, 58 student's read 600 books to raise $2, 000 for Make-a-Wish. Because this was so popular among the grade four students the children actually requested of their teachers the chance to raise even more funds for another social outreach program. The teachers and students in grade five decided that they also wanted to join in and have begun their own "Book-It" challenge. Students are hoping to raise even more money than before and this time, donate to The American Red Cross for the Haitian Disaster Relief Fund.
