PVSD BOOKFAIR POPUP AT CMS
We will have a guest author, Dan Gemeinhart, coming to read to Grades 6-8th in the MUR Tuesday at 9:50. Dan has a great message about perseverance, bullying, and kindness. He shares an incident from his middle school years about bullying, which many schools he has read at have found to be extremely powerful.
Also, Mon 9/25- Thurs 9/28 during lunch time there will be a mini book fair set up at Corte Madera located in Lab 102 with the amazing student council at the helm. Make sure to have your kids bring money to school for new titles, classics, and more!
