Dawn Drager wins 2nd award
by Linda Boozer
Dawn Drager recently
completed the requirements
for her second award in the
DARE project. She is a
student in Mr. Rupp’s sixth
grade at Maytown.
The origina! instructions
for the project stated that
each child should choose 1'
award and aim for that goal.
But, Dawn decided she
could get all three.
She has now read over SS
books in at least S different
categories. A comprehen-
sive form was carefully
completed for each book,
many of which contained
over 200 pages.
Dawn has now won the
second highest award: The
Avid Reader's Club Award.

to the deans list for the fall
term at Millersville State
College.
Ron, sen or Mi. and Mrs.
John H. Lutz is a junior in
secondary education major-
ing in biclogy.
The purpose of the Project
DARE is to help children
rediscover the pleasures of
persenal reading.
For now their efforts are
being rewarded with certifi-
cates of achievement and
public recognition. Their
teachers believe that, once
children become really in-
volved with boeks, persenal
rewards will come to them
throughout their lives.
Five awards, out of a total
of nine in the district, have
gone to students in Mrs.
Kegel’s room.
She devotes fifteen min-
utes each morning to per-
sonal reading.
Each child keeps his cwn
records, and Mrs. Kegel
files them along with their
activities on special cards.
The children alse are
guided and encouraged to-
ward creative book-related
projects.
