Clipper Readathon

The Clipper Readathon is the Newburyport PTO’s largest in-school fundraiser and takes place at the Bresnahan and Molin Schools. The goal of the Clipper Readathon is to support our district’s literacy initiative and to raise funds for field trip buses, enrichment activities, and new books for our schools libraries. Last year, we raised over $37,000 for our schools. Way to go Clipper Readers!

​

The 2025 Clipper Readathon kicks off on March 17th. Sign up your Clipper Reader!

The Newburyport PTO has worked hard to create a pledge-based fundraiser that is positive and inclusive, does not give a portion of donations to a commercial fundraising company, and does not put pressure on students to fundraise. The sole focus at school during the Readathon is READING, not collecting pledges. Every aspect of the Clipper Readathon is 100% planned and run by parent and teacher volunteers. We are very proud of this accomplishment!
