Summer Reading Incentive Program
Families are invited to join our weekly
reading incentive program which is designed
to motivate a child to read over the summer
with weekly incentives. The process and the
incentive may vary from year to year but the
concept is the same; Read Equals Reward.
Way to Go Rewards
Local teachers are invited to use our Way-to-Go
reward program which is free and a great way
for teachers to reward good behavior or hard
work in the classroom. We supply the teacher
with Way-to-Go coupon sheets.
They cut them apart and use them for rewards. The student brings the coupon to our store and he or she can pick an item from our Way-to-Go treasure chest. It's a simple and free way to reward your students. Coupon sheets are available year-round at registers.
