Seward Read Around
Read Around February 26 - March 24, 2024
The Seward Montessori Read Around is our annual read-a-thon and school-wide celebration of reading. During Read Around, Seward students are encouraged to read at home every day, recording this time on their Reading Record. There are also lots of in-school activities - guest author visits, mystery readers, PJ day, and more!
