All 43 first graders earned AR T-shirts. To earn a T-shirt, first graders must earn ten points. Since a majority of books at this level are only worth a half point, that means first graders must read at least 20 books to earn that T-shirt states Mrs. Nevrivy. T-shirts are donated by Malta Rotary Club.
