Read-a-Thon

Welcome to the Read-a-Thon!

Ahoy Parents & Guardians!

Starting November 6th, join us as we set sail on the Kaiser & Woodland Read-A-Thon Fundraiser adventure, anchored by KWPFO (Kaiser Woodland Parent Faculty Organization). This year's theme is "Dive into Reading," and we invite our students to embark on a deep dive into the ocean of books.

We have set an ambitious goal of $45,000! We're delighted to announce that this year, we'll be funding two new part-time support teachers! The funds will also continue to support technology, arts, science, and enrichment opportunities, as well as on-campus activities.

From November 6th to 17th, we invite our divers to:

  • Begin their journey by creating a Read-a-thon account at mybooster.com

  • Log their reading minutes and collect online donations at mybooster.com

  • Complete a Treasure Hunt Game with sea-worthy reading activities
