You worked hard! Now sit back...relax!



Jeffrey worked his tookis off this school year to win this chair. It is a big thing at the Whiteface Elementary to get a chair. The students have to earn 200 points reading AR (Accelerated Reader) Books. The students read a book, then they take a test over what they read to earn the points. The books Jeffrey read were worth half a point and he ended the year with 232 total points. That is like.....um....a bunch of books! 400 some odd or something like that. ANYWAY, what I'm trying to say is that he read these books that range in grade level from first grade through second and third grade and each book was worth about half a point and for him to make 232 points was a huge deal! We are very proud of him and when he got the chair home he sat in it for a week straight!
