Only 4 more days until the Book Fair begins! Let’s get ready for the fair by turning in
our “captivated quarter” donations today.
All donations go to our “All for Books” coin challenge which benefits
our students and teachers’ classrooms.
Tomorrow we will be collecting captivated quarters. The winning grade level of the “All for Books”
coin challenge will be receiving “enchanted treats”.
For every dollar we raise, Scholastic donates a book to a
literacy charity to help kids and families in need!
Yesterday you donated a total of $231.58 in dreamy dimes for
the “All for Books” coin challenge. The
total money donated so far is $416.66.
Second grade has donated the most money at $102.50. First grade is second in the coin challenge
with $96.66 donated. Let’s give a big
shout out to the preschool for donating $38.60 in dimes yesterday and another
big shout out to the kindergarten for donating $37.40 in dimes! Thank you to everyone for your donations.
