📚⭐ Reading Has Its Rewards! ⭐📚

Students at #SouthsideElementarySchool Summer Learning Camp had a fun incentive to keep turning pages this summer!

#Students who read 500 minutes during Summer Learning Camp earned the opportunity to give a teacher or even the School Resource Officer a temporary tattoo! 🎉

There were lots of smiles and laughter as students celebrated reaching their reading goal with this memorable reward. What a fun way to recognize their hard work and encourage a love of reading! 📖✨
