March madness at Ada Elementary

Second annual Read-a-thon

The second annual Read-a-thon at Ada Elementary School has been a wild romp benefitting Deb’s Dogs. The school goal is $5,000.

To motivate students and teachers, principal Tim Closson volunteered to dress up on April 1 in a wild ensemble selected by the students. Each grade level chose an item for him to wear. If they didn’t reach their reading goal, he would not have worn that special item.

Kindergarten: Hat (or as it turned out, a crown)

First grade: Crazy shirt

Second grade: Cape

Third grade: Tie

Fourth grade: Carry something around (a purse that conveniently held his walkie-talkie)

Fifth grade: Crazy pants
