READ ACROSS DORMAN


In celebration of Read Across America (Dr. Seuss’s birthday), the Dorman High School media center will sponsor two reading contests.

Contest #1: The student who has checked out the most books from the Dorman media center this school year (Aug. 19, 2008 - March 27, 2009) will receive a $50.00 gift card. Jazmine Alexander won the $50.00 gift card to Barnes and Noble for checking out the most library books so far this year.

Contest #2: The 2nd block class who has the highest percentage of books per student checked out from the Dorman library during second semester, will receive biscuits from the media center. The books DO NOT have to be checked out during 2nd block. The highest percentage of books counted for the contest will include all books checked out by your 2nd block students during the entire school day. Mr. Robert Urban's 2nd block art class won the biscuit breakfast for having the highest percentage of books per student checked out from the library.
All participants must check books out with a valid Dorman ID card in order to be eligible for the contest. Stop by the DHS media center for more information on READ ACROSS DORMAN.
