Since 2004, the UHPTA has been proud to present its annual Red Hot Readers program. This exciting program is designed to increase a student's love of reading and comprehension by exposing them to a variety of books with different genres and authors. Students who become Red Hot Readers also reap the rewards of reading by earning credits redeemable toward the purchase of books!
Starting in October, the Red Hot Readers book selection sheets will be available at
uhpta.com. The student can choose to read 1, 2, or all 3 of the book selections that are listed each month. Red Hot Readers earn $0.25 credit per book read. Older students reading longer books will have the option to earn $0.01 per page, up to $0.75 credit per month. PreK students can read any two books of choice.
Students can use their credits at the annual spring BOGO Book Fair, where books are buy-one-get-one free.
Students also have the opportunity to access e-books from the school's e-book platform, MACKIN VIA. To access MACKIN VIA, click on this
link and have your child log in with their Clever account. We hope you will make use of this great new resource! Any questions regarding its use can be directed to our school librarian,
Mrs. Kroslin, at jkroslin@htsdnj.org.
In order for your child to receive credit for the Red Hot Readers program, you must submit the titles read by the end of the month. To do so, go to
uhpta.com and click on the flaming book logo, or go directly to the submission form using this
link.
All students are eligible to join. If your child is not yet reading, you may read the book to them.
To become a Red Hot Reader, you and your child need to fill out the contract below.
We look forward to another exciting year of Red Hot Readers! If you have any questions regarding the Red Hot Readers program, please send an email to:
