WELCOME TO HUSKIES READ! 2026-2027
Reading is an adventure, and we can’t wait to see where your next book takes you!
Huskies Read! is a Hopkinson PTA program that encourages students to discover the joy of reading while sharing great books with others. Instead of writing a traditional book report, students write a book review that tells other readers why they might enjoy the book without giving away the ending.
Whether your child reads independently or enjoys reading with family, we invite everyone to participate. Huskies Read is completely voluntary, and we hope every Husky will join the fun!
How It Works
1. Read a Book
Choose any book you’d like to read.
2. Complete a Book Review
Complete the appropriate book review form and turn it in to your teacher or the collection box in the school office.Book review forms are available:
- In your classroom
- In the school office
- On the Hopkinson PTA website
Forms by Grade Level:
- TK & Kindergarten: Use the form with space to draw a picture and share what you enjoyed about the story.
- 1st Grade: Use the written review form with larger writing lines.
- 2nd-5th Grade: Use the standard written review form.
3. Earn Rewards
Book reviews will be collected on the dates listed below. Every student who submits a Huskies Read book review will receive $5 in Scholastic Dollars to spend at our Spring Book Fair. Each collection period, a few book reviews from every grade will be randomly selected to:
- Receive $10 in Scholastic Dollars for the Spring Book Fair.
- Be featured on the PTA bulletin board outside the main office.
4. Help Grow Our School Library
Some of the books that receive great reviews may be added to the Hopkinson Media Center so even more students can enjoy them.
