Sponsor a Book !

The library has received a new shipment of "Sponsor a Book" books, for anyone who missed out on the first batch, or anyone looking ahead to the holidays. Sponsoring a library book is a great way to show appreciation to teachers and staff, as well as being a perfect gift for that someone who has everything (you can present them with a certificate of sponsorship, if they won’t get to see the book). Please see the attached flyer for a list of the newly available books, or stop by the library when you’re at school this week for your teacher conferences. Contact Caroline Wang, 289-9361, caroline.wang (at) laurelpto (dot) org, if you have any questions. Last but not least, thank you to all the Laurel families who supported Sponsor a Book at the beginning of the school year! Over 50 books were added to the library’s collection!
