For the Love of Books

Each month students will have the opportunity to participate in an after-school book club. The club will meet twice each month.  They will be given a choice of six books each month.  Each student will receive a personal copy of their book choice and participate in activities to introduce the book during the first meeting, followed by a book club discussion format and activities during the second meeting each month.  Please encourage your children to attend.  This is a chance to develop a "love for reading" for enjoyment.

  

This program is made possible by a grant from the Grand Island Education Foundation.  Thank you for your support of our students, our school, and this program.
