Readers are leaders!
Real Dawgs Read is a summer reading program developed for K-8, Title I schools in Washington state. There is no cost to schools or participants (postage is covered); it is simply a way to incent students to read over the summer. Participants read at least听20 minutes a day on听30 separate days听to earn a Husky reward and reading certificate.
To give this program wider reach, we’ve made some changes. Printed journals are shipped to Title I elementary schools that opt in each year. If you are a Title I elementary school principal and want to participate in 2026, email us to make sure we have your current contact information.
Any K-8 Washington state student, regardless if the student attends a Title I school or not, may participate online through this website. If you are with a school that wants to promote the online program, feel free to distribute to your students.
