Three students at Granite Falls Middle School recently earned 3 tickets each to attend an ASU football game.  These students competed in the ASU summer reading program and were chosen as the top three students to be awarded game tickets.  Emily White read a variety of 20 books over the summer.  Kimberly Branham read 20 mystery books.  Kaitlyn Icard read 13 books over the summer as well.  The ASU summer reading program acknowledges students that take the time to continue to read books of their choice over the summer.
