[LM_NET] Target: MID: Drop Everything and Read

[David Bilmes <dudu4tigers@SNET.NET>]

Our middle school is going to switch from our present system of having a 20-minute 
combined SSR/homeroom period to start the day to instead going to a type of DEAR 
(Drop Everything and Read). On some days, the kids will have SSR during half of 
their lunch period. On other days, they might have it during one of their classes. 
In any case, my principal would like me to find out if there are other middle 
schools doing some type of DEAR program, and if so, how well it works. Thanks in 
advance for your help!
