Renton’s Highlands Elementary School has some of the most productive readers in the state. As part of the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge, students at the school read more books than any other school in Washington state.

Highlands students logged more than 3,200 hours of summer reading making them top readers in the state and 52 out of the hundreds of thousands of schools that participated in the challenge worldwide.

All students at the school participated in the program.

“We know when students read all summer they retain their skills and develop a love of reading that will help them to live better, happier lives,” said Janet Fawcett, Highlands Elementary principal in a release.

A celebration is being planned.
