Dear Parents, Students and Staff,
Thank you for your continued support of the annual book fair at Battle Creek Public Schools. We sold $4627.38 worth of books this year. We went $1100.00 over our goal. This means that we put approximately 588 books in the hands of students. In the elementary building we were able to purchase 308 additional books with our profit. That is approximately 900 books for children to enjoy and use to grow their imagination and knowledge. Thank you for making a commitment to your children/students and for nurturing the love of reading.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Becker
