As you may know, a major tornado devastated the community of Henryville, Indiana on March 2nd. One of the consequences of the storm was the complete destruction of the only public school in the area. This report from NPR gives additional details.The grandmother of one of our families, is a retired teacher, and sent the following request:
"As a former teacher, I know that one of the greatest losses in a classroom is the loss of the classroom library. So….with that said, here is my challenge. If you or your school/PTO would like to donate a book/books to Reece’s class, that would be awesome. (Reading levels, grade 2-5)"
Please look through your children's library and see if you have any books to donate (no damaged books please) and bring them to the school office this week. On Friday we will package them up and ship them to Henryville with a note from our school on behalf of everyone who donated.
Thank you!
