Beginning Monday, January 11th classes at Tri-C will be completing the 21 Day Reading Habits Challenge. For the next 21 days, students will be encouraged to develop habits to become life-long readers. Each week students will reflect upon their habits and be able to earn small prizes throughout. On February 1st, we will celebrate with a new book, special reading activity, and a chance to win a Kindle Fire tablet. We are so excited for this opportunity!

Happy New Year! We were excited to welcome our students back today and wish everyone a great 2021!
