Congratulations to the winners of the Brian Jordan Reading Challenge!!! We salute our top readers from every school and our most improved readers. Congratulations to the third graders at South Douglas Elementary for making it the top school!
The Brian Jordan Reading Challenge was sponsored by multi-sport legacy Brian Jordan in partnership with the Douglas County School System. Third grade students across the county received individual reading goals during 9-week “challenge periods." The top reader and most improved reader from each school during each challenge period were rewarded with a special field trip. Students this year visited the College Football Hall of Fame as well as Chick-fil-A headquarters in Atlanta. The top class in each school had the opportunity to play kickball with Brian Jordan himself as he visited each school to offer congratulations and motivation!

Most improved readers have the highest increase in scaled score on the STAR reading assessment from the beginning of the year through the end of the 2nd challenge period.
