Our Bikes or Scooters

for Books Project

First Trimester 2015

We have continued our on-going Literacy project this year. For elementary students at any Lincoln Elementary school in the Western Placer Unified School District that achieves their Accelerated Reading Goals for the trimester, they become eligible for the Rotary drawing for a bike or scooter.

The purpose of this project is to encourage students to read. Up through the 3rd grade, students learn to read. Thereafter, they read to learn.

The pictures below show the winner accepting their awards.

Worldwide, 67 million children have no access to education, and more than 775 million people over the age of 15 are illiterate. Basic Education and Literacy are supported worldwide by Rotary.
