Excellence in Reading - An Enrichment Opportunity!


The Mensa Foundation recognizes and encourages education, gifted youth, and lifelong learning. 

To encourage the joy of reading, the Mensa Foundation has developed the Mensa for Kids Excellence in Reading Program. Students of all ages can participate and it's FREE!  Membership in Mensa is not required.



To participate, students select a book list on the Mensa for Kids website. Students are encouraged to read at the level of their ability and interest, regardless of age or grade level.

Students track the books they read on a recording sheet. (No reading response required!!)  Once finished, students send the completed form to Mensa. Students can earn a commemorative certificate in recognition of their outstanding achievement and get a free Excellence in Reading T-shirt, too!


The books may be read aloud. Readers can also listen to audio books or read the books online. Teachers may also read to their classes.


To learn more about this free program and see the book lists, visit the Mensa for Kids website here.

If your child decides to participate, please let me know! I would love to encourage his/her efforts!
