We know you spend a lot of time reading -- reading for class assignments, picking up the sports section of the newspaper, keeping up with characters in your favorite book series, reading magazines, reading online, etc.  We know many of you are avid readers and read several books simultaneously.  When we found out that Parents Magazine and the International Reading Association were sponsoring a reading contest, we couldn't resist signing MUS up to participate.  All you have to do is keep track of the time you spend reading until May 31, for school and for your personal enjoyment, and tell your parents so they can log in your minutes.  Every time you are logged in for 60 minutes of reading, your name goes into a drawing for Barnes & Noble gift cards.  If MUS wins the entire contest, we will receive $5,000 for our library.  Ask your parents to sign up you up and log in your hours at this link.  Let's find out how much time you really do spend reading.  We're guessing it will be an impressive number!
