Jaden Williams, a second grade student in Debbie Kryspin’s class at Wadsworth Elementary School, was the first student in his class to earn 100 Reading Counts points.

Reading Counts is a research-based program that motivates students to want to read, Kryspin said.

Students choose books to read and when they are finished they take a short test on the computer about the book. If they pass, they get points based on the difficulty of the test.

“Since second graders usually choose 1-3 point books, this is an amazing accomplishment,” Kryspin said.

Williams was awarded a reading medal, which his teacher said he wears proudly, and has re-set his goal to 200 points.
