AR Lunch Bunch

Reading is such an important skill for our students to develop and to continue developing as they progress in school.  The more a student reads, the more their vocabulary is developed.  The new STAAR requires our students to think critically about what they are reading.  Additionally, students are asked to apply what they read to problem solve across different content areas such as math, science and social studies. 

In an effort to encourage more students to read, Lorena Middle School has started a new incentive program.  Each six weeks for the first 5 six weeks, students who reach 100% of their AR goal will be entered into a drawing to travel off campus for a pizza lunch.  Two students from each grade will have their names drawn and travel with the principals for lunch.

At the end of the year, students who have reached 100% of their goal for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th six weeks grading periods will be entered into a drawing for a Nook or a Kindle.

Another way Lorena MS encourages students to read and challenge themselves is to reward all students who have earned 50 points in December with a Coke Float Party.  Students who earn 100 points in the school year are rewarded with a picnic at the end of the year.

All students who reach 100% of their AR goal each six weeks will have their name posted on the AR STAR Wall. Thank you in advance for encouraging your student to Read More and Learn More.
