Superintendent's Star Reader Book Club

All Duval County Public Schools' students who read twenty-five books are eligible to become a member of the Superintendent’s Star Reader Club. Students must record their books with their classroom teacher. The teacher then reports the names of students who have met the challenge to the school media specialist who gives out invitations to the annual reading celebration.

Students who meet the twenty-five book standard are invited to an end of the year celebration that honors Duval County students. The celebration is organized by WJCT, Jacksonville Public Libraries, ARAMARK Corporation and the Duval County Public Schools to promote reading in our community.

The Reading Celebration is designed for all ages to enjoy. The whole family is treated to an “extra special day” full of prizes and storytellers. Metropolitan Park comes to life filled with fun activities sponsored by numerous community organizations that support the importance of reading.
