NO SCHOOL MONDAY: Labor Day
On Monday, elementary summer school students at Sheridan Preparatory Academy received a free, brand-new book of their choosing, thanks to our fabulous community partners!
With the support of CDPHP, Grassroot Givers sponsored Tuesday’s “Book Bike,” an earth-friendly mobile library that’s transported by bicycle throughout the community. District literacy coach Carey Fusco pedaled the portable library from Grassroot Givers on Washington Avenue to Sheridan Prep on Sheridan Avenue, and students had a chance to pick from hundreds of age-appropriate titles.
Special shout-outs to Fusco and Stacey Erwell of Grassroot Givers for making it happen! We’re looking to schedule Book Bike visits to elementary summer programs at other locations in the near future.
Check out a Facebook photo album from the morning. (You don't need a Facebook account to see the photos linked in the highlighted text. A window may appear that says, "To see more from Albany City Schools on Facebook, log on or create an account,” but you can dismiss it by clicking “not now.”)
