Reading is celebrated with gold at Rees Elementary School in Spanish Fork, Utah.  First grade has added a new element to the Road to Success Reading Program.  All first graders are asked to read at least 20 minutes every day of the week.  Each student then records their minutes they have read.  At the end of the week, their reading calendar is returned to their teacher.

Ms. Stacey Hall is the librarian at Rees Elementary.  Ms. Stacey was selected by the teachers and staff as the most valuable employee and was presented with a certificate and other goodies from Craig Harvey with Horace Mann.  Teachers and staff at Rees Elementary love Ms. Stacey and truly appreciate all the hard work she always does in order to provide the students and staff with excellent books and resources.  Thank you, Ms. Stacey!
