Thank you to Ridgeview's PTA, Co-Chairs Katie Arney and Carol Shutley, and Ridgeview students, parents, and staff for the best book fair we have ever had! The total sales of the book fair was over $7,000 and the media center will receive over $4,000 to purchase new books and materials for our library. More importantly, Ridgeview students and staff raised almost $700 in our One for Books campaign. Our goal was $500 and you far-exceeded this goal! The entire school will receive a special jeans day! Scholastic matches these funds dollar for dollar and also makes a matching donation to organizations in the community.
Ms. Lessinger’s homeroom raised the most money (an average of almost $4 per student) and received a donut party.
Special thanks to the following homerooms which also raised a large amount of money – Mr. Grant’s, Ms. Billie Williams', and Ms. Furst’s.
I thought the book fair selection was great this year, and we already have some of the wonderful new books on our shelves!
