Wildcats 100 Book Campagin

   This year, our principal, Ms. Payton is challenging ALL students to read a minimum of 100 books, 25 books per grading period.  Students will complete a reading log for accountability and should be prepared to discuss the books with Ms. Payton, if they are chosen. We have planned HUGE celebrations for those students who are up to the challenge.  Ms. Payton's hope is to foster a love for reading in each and every student, while increasing Lexile levels at WFES.
