Nickajack's Media Center Needs Your Help!
Make Your Tax Deductible Donation by Dec. 31st!
The media center plays a critical role in increasing literacy among students, assisting teachers with their curriculum, and contributing to your child's lifelong joy of reading.
There simply is not enough money in the budget to fill our library with the books our students and teachers need for reading and research. A recent collection analysis indicates that 70% of our non-fiction collection is out dated, over 4,000 books! We need to purchase updated and relevant non-fiction books to support the Common Core curriculum and our student's interest in non-fiction topics.
For every $20 donated we will be able to purchase a new book and 100% of your tax deductible donation goes to the Nickajack Media Center!
Click to donate: http://www.funds4books.com/fundraiser.aspx?pincode=ece9
Donations ($10 minimum) will be accepted until January 17, 2014.
With your help, we can purchase the library materials our children need!
We greatly appreciate your support!
