Support the North Beach Elementary Library!

Starting today and running through June 7th, the library is having a Funds4Books fundraiser through Mackin Books.  100% of all Funds4Books donations goes directly to the acquisition of new materials for the North Beach Library!

With the proceeds of this fundraiser, the library will add a selection of eBooks that support K-5 Science curriculum topics, 2nd-5th grade Social Studies topics, and titles that are often in high demand and have long waiting lists.

In addition, we are hoping to raise enough funds to acquire the print versions of the 2012 Washington Children's Choice and Sasquatch Award nominated titles.  All students K-3 participate in the Washington Children's Choice Award and are introduced to 20 outstanding recently published books.  The Sasquatch Award is voluntary for 3rd-5th grade students and this year 42 of our intermediate students participated in reading the nominees and voting for their favorite title. 

You can support this effort by going directly to http://www.funds4books.com/fundraiser.aspx?pincode=9aa5 .  If you have any questions, please contact Kristine McLane in the library at kemclane@seattleschools.org . Thank you!
