THE SUMMER READING PROGRAM which celebrates our 50th anniversary is proving very successful. There are more readers than we have ever had and the children are reading their books thoroughly. We can tell by the answers they give when they return the books. When they read ten books they are given a candle for the cake. Our idea in planning this program is for the children to read at least one book each week which will help them remember their words. The awards are to the grades that have the most children to finish the program and receive diplomas. Gold candles are placed on the top layer of the cakes when a parent or any adult has read three non-fiction books for a child. FIRST AND SECOND GRADE children who have won their candles are: Susan Gross Julie Meeks; Jayne Beal; Patty Schurger; Patty Gross; Kathy Franz; Kenny Gase; Alice Kummer; Marjorie Peterson; John Meeks; Patti Parrish; Pamela Heffner, — - THIRD AND FOURTH GRADE children who' have won their candles are: Ann Gross who also has a gold candle for her mother has read three non-fiction books for her; Margaret Kocher; Johnny Custer; Dan Heller; Cynthia Cravens; Marilyn Knudson; Eugene Peterson; Connie Teeple; Donna Lee Birch; Agnes Hain; Thomas Baxter; Diane Gase; David Swickard. _ - FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES children who have won their candles are John Dierkes who also has a gold candle for his mother’? reading three non-fictlbn books; Patricia Beal; Judy Tutewßer; Tom CrhVens ; Thomas Gase. There are 535 children enrolled in the reading program, and 30 of them have already won their candles. The 3rd and 4th grade are ahead by one candle.
