6th Grade Book Drive
As part of the B'nai TELEM (Boston area service-learning program), the 6th graders learned about the value of literacy and mitzvah of helping children read. They were surprised to learn that, "Two-thirds of American classrooms have fewer than 50 children's books and almost 60% of childcare centers buy fewer than one book per child per year" (JCRC Literacy Coalition Manual). In this spirit, the 6th grade class is holding a book drive through the month of January. Please donate new or gently used children's books for a general audience. Books will be donated to the Cradles to Crayons organization. They are highly in need of books for ages 8-12. Baby board books are also welcome. We all have books sitting on our shelves at home - let another child love them!
