Marquand-Zion R-VI School District

Dear families We're excited to partner with Books Are Fun and the Book Blast program to grow our students' home libraries and encourage more reading over screen time! We are asking for you to register your child. Details are on the Treasure Maps each student received today.

The Book Blast is back and we invite you to join in on the fun and earn your child some books to read this summer. The Book Blast mission will start next week. Follow the steps on the Treasure Map coming home next week.
