EVENT DETAILS
Read on Hyer
February 5-12, 2025
We are so proud to be celebrating our 11th year of Read on Hyer this year! This beloved fundraiser, created and developed by the Hyer PTA, has two primary goals: to foster a love of reading in our children and to raise necessary funds to support our school. Students obtain pledges for their reading during the event, and earn rewards based on both their reading minutes and their own fundraising efforts. These exciting rewards include prizes, celebration parties and special reading events! ​​​
