At their annual book fair on October 30, Albuquerque Public School employees were given an opportunity to purchase a wide variety of Books, with the funds raised going to support the Summer Learning Adventure program.
The event, hosted by the APS Education Foundation and the Curriculum and Instruction group, raised $3,200 for Books that will be used to reward students who take part in the program. It takes place over 25 days in the summer and is geared towards students in grades kindergarten to grade five, and is designed to help the children who take part improve their reading and math skills.
Those who take part and have a perfect weekly attendance will have a chance to be rewarded with a book of their choice. The students who do not miss a single day of the 25 will be given something even more special, such as a mini science kit, a popup book, or a sticker book. The purchase of these rewards is where the funds raised by the book fair will be used.
The program’s 2014 dates run from June 17 until July 23, while those on an alternative schedule will be able to take part from June 3 until July 9. Stationery printers could help to encourage the students who take part by creating and printing a certificate of merit to be given to each child.Get a Free Quote for Stationery Get a Free Quote for Books
