Book Donations

In recent travels around the district, we have noticed a number of teachers purging their classroom books. Our fear is that they are ending up in the recycling bin, or worse, the trash. 

This organization, Books Are Wings, donates books to PPSD, so here's a way we can help them back by donating our unwanted books to them.  

On the Books Are Wings website, you can contact them and schedule a time for them to come pick-up books, or find a drop-off location.  This is a great time of the year to go through books, and decide what you want in your classroom for the new school year, and what others might be able to use.  

Before donating, hold a book trade in your school. Have teachers bring their unwanted books, and they can look through and take books that other teachers want to get rid of. After the book trade, call Books Are Wings, and have them come pick up what ever books are left.  

This is a great way to get resources to schools and families with few resources and not enough books for their children!
