Read, Deed, and Run
-
What is Read, Deed, and Run?
- RDR is an all-encompassing program for the WHOLE child.
- Students in grades 4 & 5 commit to a 26-week program in which they will read 26 books (or 2600 pages), perform 26 good deeds in the community, and run a total of 26.2 miles.
- Students run their final 1.2 miles in a "race" to earn their finisher's t-shirt and medal.
Read Requirement:
- Students are required to read 26 books or 2600 pages.
- Books read in school can count towards the reading requirement.
- Books must be at the student's reading level.
- Records of the books read will be kept in the student's RDR book.
Deed Requirement:
- Students are required to perform 26 deeds in or for the community.
- one deed = one hour of service
- Deed opportunities will be communicated throughout the program.
- A Deed opportunity is NEVER required, it is completely up to the student and their family to decide if they wish to participate.
Run Requirement:
- Students are required to run a total of 25 miles throughout the course of the program.
- On Run Days, students will run a mile on a course supervised by coaches. Staff will be with students at all times.
- Students will need to dress appropriately – shorts, t-shirts, and tennis shoes.
