During lunch hour, the literary magazine group holds a poetry reading in the library. Students share their original poetry with others. To prepare for the achievement tests, the school holds a reading incentive contest for a month. The competition is among all first hour classes. For each book a student reads, the library provides a school mascot cutout to be placed on display.
Teachers keep a book ledger.
A master list is on display in the library charting each team's progress. At the end of the contest, the class that has read the most books receives a Hardee's breakfast. The five students who have read the most books over all are also invited. Individual teacher prizes are also awarded. Students read a novel a month which we advertise and come in to discuss the book over snacks.
