Book Exchange: Friday, April 19th
Book Exchange Collection: Thursday, April 11 - Thursday, April 18|
This year, CSS will hold their annual book exchange on FRIDAY April 19th. For new families, every April we hold a book exchange in honor of Earth Day! Students spring clean their home libraries and bring in books to swap. Teachers will have a collection box inside their room and students can bring in books (20 books maximum) starting Thursday, April 11th through the morning of Thursday, April 19th.
The book exchange will take place on Friday, April 19th during the school day for the students. **There will also be a parent/teacher book exchange element, so bring in your books (5 books max for parents due to space in the classroom) and we will have a table set up at the front gate on Thursday all day long for parents/staff to visit before, during and after-school! This is a great way to recycle your books and find new treasures. All the leftover books will be donated to a local non-profit organization. Please let me know if you have any questions: katie.szopa@gmail.com
Food Drive
Our wonderful student council is asking for donations to support their Unity Shoppe Food Drive that is being run throughout the month of April. Please support their efforts by dropping food off in the “Yellow” bin located near the main office.
Important Reminder: No School on Friday, April 26
Please enjoy a day off with your family to get ready for the end of the year!
