Dear Parents,

We are excited to announce the grand opening of our student run bookstore. The grand opening will be in February of 2007. We will continue to be open throughout the year on the following days and times.

Days: 1 & 2 6^th Grade Time: 2:07-2:25

3 & 4 7^th Grade

5 & 6 8^th Grade

We encourage you to visit the bookstore and become an active participant in your child’s literary development. Scientific research emphasizes that parental involvement is critical to a child’s literary success. In addition, research shows that access to a variety of books (such as through the bookstore) affects a child’s reading motivation and achievement. The more your child reads, the better his/her vocabulary, reading skills and knowledge will be.

Gift certificates and pre-paid cards may be purchased in several denominations. If you would like to purchase a pre-paid card, please fill out the tear-off below and return it to the bookstore along with the appropriate amount.

We have great titles at great prices. All profits are used toward the purchase of additional books. We look forward to seeing you and your children at the student-run bookstore this year.

Sincerely,

Denise Holland, Christine Rineer, and Joyce England-Gordon
