Challenge your kids, preschool through sixth grade, to read 20 minutes each day during the month of November. There is no need register for the Reading Marathon!
Reading Marathon logs will be available on this page in October, 2026. At the end of November, you will then submit your children's minutes with a simple form on this page.
