Join the PTA as we promote summer reading and provide each student with 1-2 new to them books to take home. Here is a proposed outline of activities for the 2023 book swap. Each family/student is encouraged to donate at least one chapter book.  Board books and story books are discouraged since most of the children desire a chapter book.   Classes that reach the goal of 1 book per child will receive a popsicle party. 

Dates:

May 22-June 5: Book Collection at Ritchie Park and Julius West

June 6-7                        Book Swap Round 1

June 8:                          Book Swap Round 2

June 9-13:                     Teachers take any books they desire

June 13:                        Remainder of books donated to local charity

Parent Volunteers Will Be Needed! SIGN UP TODAY

Parents will come in each day to sort the books into boxes by general categories and remove any inappropriate books. One-two volunteers will be needed 2-3 times a week for the book collectionand during the swap hours.
