As Middletown’s only RIF program site, Macdonough School will be participating in the “Books for Ownership” program designed to motivate children, families, and community members to read together through a triad of principles basic to the entire RIF organization: book ownership, motivational activities, and family involvement in children's reading.
• Book ownership: Macdonough School students will have the opportunity to choose and keep two to five books per year at no cost to the children or their families.
• Fun literacy-related activities: Macdonough school volunteers and staff will continue to motivate children to read with a myriad of festive book activities that accompany each book event.
