We used the supplies you sent for a first week of school scavenger hunt. The kids loved finding the revamped areas in the library. They each got a new bookmark, curtesy of you, when they finished the hunt. It made their day extra special. \r\nI cant wait to use the rest of the supplies this year for more fun events.

Your donations made it possible for us to receive much needed bins to organize our book series, and the impact has been immense. Students can now easily find the books they love, from early reader collections to popular non fiction book series, fostering a stronger sense of independence and excitement about reading. \r\n Each bin is labeled and has a picture of the series for easy locating. The pictures really help the younger students locate books they are interested in on their own. It's been so helpful for me to be able to guide the students to what they are looking for quickly. I'm noticing more and more, students are coming away with more than what they were looking for and that makes me so happy.
