2018 New Mexico True Summer Reading Challenge
The 2018 New Mexico True Summer Reading Challenge is a free reading program dedicated to stopping the “summer slide” by encouraging our New Mexico students to read more books over the summer break. Reading is the foundation for learning, and when our students read well, they are better positioned to succeed academically, in the workplace and in life.
CONTEST RULES: Participants must be a New Mexico resident entering elementary school in the 2018-2019 school year or ages 5-12 by September 1, 2018. All completed forms/essays must be submitted, postmarked by July 31, 2018. Only one submission per student will be eligible for prizes. Grand prizes are selected by random drawing. Eligibility requirements will be verified for all grand prize winners.
