Dear LEOLA SCHOOL Families,
Exciting news! We have partnered with Books Are Fun and their Book Blast program to help build our students' home libraries. For over 30 years, Books Are Fun has been a trusted partner in promoting literacy.
Today, our students learned about the Book Blast Program, literacy, and the importance of having their own books at home. Tonight, we ask you to take 7 minutes to help build your child’s home library.

Why I love this program:
· It’s guaranteed to put new, age-appropriate books into the hands of every student!
· 100% of all contributions go toward new books and classroom supplies. Books will be delivered to the school a few weeks after the event ends.
· The booklist is fantastic! It’s attached; check it out.
· It will take you about 7 minutes. There is NO financial requirement of you.
· Don’t worry. All the information you provide is secure and only used for this program.
More books in your homes equals more pages being read! That’s the goal. We’re hoping for 100% participation.
Thank you for helping our students and our school!
