Summer Reading Challenge Update
Our students have logged over 140,000 minutes!

Our Nickajack students have logged over 140,000 minutes so far in the Summer Reading Challenge and are ranked 180th in the country as of June 30th, WOW!  We are so excited to see so many student read this summer, already surpassing last year's total minutes.  Students participating in the Summer Reading Challenge can earn prizes at Smyrna Library and Cobb County libraries, check with their staff for details.

Research shows that books in the home, and involved parents make a world of difference in a child's school, and overall life success. Keep them reading every day!

It isn't too late for your student to join in! Log-in information was provided by teachers in May, or register your student at scholastic.com/summer  and be sure to add Nickajack as their school.
