SPANISH BOOK
DONATION
The Scotchtown
Avenue Elementary School - Library Media Center
is the recipient of a generous donation of a
bookcase filled with Spanish language books.
Lauren Perry,
a senior in the Goshen High School, has been in
the Girl Scouts since 1st Grade (for
12 years!). She noticed that there was an
increase in the number of Spanish-speaking
children at the elementary school and wanted to
give them the opportunity to read in their
primary language and hoped to promote reading
for them. Lauren spent the last several months
working on her Gold Award Project. She
solicited donations from the community and
purchased many Spanish language books. Lauren
also built and stained a bookcase to shelve the
books in the library and prepared the books for
the students.
