Horseshoe Bend students in kindergarten through sixth grade have added incentive to read recreationally and this is the perfect time to do so.
The Read to Succeed program is sponsored by Six Flags Theme Parks and encourages children in this age group to complete six hours of non-school related reading to be eligible for a free ticket to a participating Six Flags location.
