Incentives and Programs
 
 
Rebecca Caudill Young Reader’s Book Award
The RCYRBA is a Illinois Reader’s Choice sward given annually for the best Children’s or Young Adult book.  Here at MIS, we have a long standing tradition of participating in the program.  We believe giving the students the power to vote for their favorite books gives them the incentive to READ!
