Bookworm Angels Book Drive
It's time for a little spring cleaning! Clear out those new or gently used books that your child has already read or out-grown! Your child brought home a flyer about the Bookworm Angels Book Drive at Prairieview from Monday, April 23 to Friday, May 4. Please consider donating to this worthy cause. The grade level that brings in the most books earns a "deluxe popsicle" reward!
