Congratulations to Kirsten Coombs

For being a Reading University Scholar during the first quarter of the 2009-2010 school year.

Kirsten's school has a reading program called Reading University. They encourage the kids to read at least 6 grade level books per quarter, however Miss Kirsten far exceeds that number. She was recently honored during a school assembly with a certificate, ribbon, and a book of her choice. We are so proud of her, she's such a little smarty and is truly succeeding at school. Below is a short letter he teacher wrote for her:

Kirsten has been excited and eager to read from the very start! She has diligently returned her Reading Log weekly and her stickers are soaring on our chart. I not only see it on paper, but I watch her attempting to read anything she can. She is a star reader in all that she does. She excels phenomenally at her Reading Fluencies and has recently jumped to a more intense reading group with her words per minute more than doubling from the beginning of the year! We are so proud of you Kirsten! Keep up the hard work.
