Students Win Big at District Reading Fair
The Redeemer’s School students have been exploring the love of reading and storytelling this year through our School Book Fair in the Fall semester and our annual Reading Fair this Spring. Winners from our TRS Reading Fair advanced to the MAIS District Reading Fair where they competed against their peers from surrounding independent schools across the metro.
TRS is proud to share that of the students who advanced to the District Reading Fair, 11 of those 16 received a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place award!

You may be asking yourself “What is a Reading Fair competition?” Students choose a book for their project. TRS provided each student a tri-fold cardboard with a list of elements that would serve as the criteria for how the project would be scored. Students were encouraged to use their creativity for how to present the information on the content of their book. Each class chose its Top 5 student board and those board progressed to the TRS Reading Fair.
Because these projects were accomplished at home, we want to take this opportunity to celebrate the support and partnership we enjoy with our TRS Families. Thank you for the honor of partnering with you in providing a rigorous, diverse, gospel-centered education for your child. Your encouragement & support is an essential ingredient to the immediate and lasting success of your child. We celebrate this accomplishment with you!
Congratulations to all of our Lions for their hard work and creativity through this year’s Reading Fair. We are proud of you!
