Read and Ride Charity Program

Mt. Nebo #67 F. & A.M. and Bordeaux Elementary School

Purpose of the Read and Ride Charity Program.

In order to improve literacy Mt.Nebo Lodge #67 F. & A.M. and Bordeaux Elementary School host a semi annual Read & Ride Charity Program. At the end of the Spring and Winter semesters students are rewarded for his/her improvements in reading. The program has a layered approach on the development of the whole student. If a student is able to read better then he/she can comprehend more. So not only will the the student become a better reader they will become a better student. In today's society we hear about obesity everywhere. We are constantly talking about how children no longer go outside and play. So instead of rewarding the student with a video game. The Read and Ride Charity Program rewards the students with a bike to promote outside activities. If the student is not one of the winners of a new bike. Then he or she may qualify for a gift card to Subway.

Break out of rewards for improved reading

1. Thirty students will be rewarded for the improvement in reading.
2. Twenty students will be rewarded with Subway gift cards.
3. Ten students will be rewarded with brand new bikes. 

This program has improved the test scores at the school.
