Go to the Beach and Read!
Students at Withamsville - Tobasco School participate in the Accelerated Reader Program. This computer software program tests the students on books they read from the library. We have over 3,800 book tests from which the students may choose. The tests cover all levels of readers from emergent readers through advanced readers. Each year the students have increased the number of total books per grade level per year. We have 100% teacher participation. Here at W.T. we love to read and take tests on the computer!
