Reading Is The Goal
Reading is the Goal is a free program open to elementary school grade classrooms in the Greater San Diego Area. We coordinate directly with school district leadership, principals and teachers to encourage classrooms to sign up and participate.
The San Diego Gulls Reading is the Goal Program’s objective is to convey the importance of reading as the foundation to success and to help students cultivate a life-long love for reading. The program encourages students to read as much as they can and record their daily reading times on an official Reading Is the Goal form. The San Diego Gulls reward students based on their participation and personal achievement.
Each participating classroom will receive a minimum of three new books for their classroom and monthly read along videos with their favorite Gulls players.
Students in each participating classroom will receive a take-home reading log and an exciting Gulls prize pack upon completion of the program. This year’s program will begin on Monday, January 22, 2025, and end on Friday, April 18, 2025.
During this time, participants should make reading their goal by filling up their reading logs as much as they can.
