"Citius, Altius, Fortius." means Swifter, Higher, and Stronger. This is the Olympic creed that has been adopted by the Stripe's Reading Teachers for the beginning of the school year. The Reading students have been divided into 22 different teams and compete each week through AR. The competition is based on how students are meeting their AR comprehension goal and their AR point goal.
