Do you have children’s books that you no longer need? We are collecting books through January to be used for a PTC book swap event in February. We are looking for picture books and chapter books through middle school level. All books will be redistributed to students in our school and all students will get to pick out some books to take home. Books can be dropped off in the office on regular school days. If you are unable to drop off during school hours, please send us an email and we can coordinate an alternative with you. We are excited to provide some “new” reads for our students
