BOOK EXCHANGE
As discussed on our last PFC board meeting, we are beginning a book exchange program at HMS. We have been graciously gifted about 200 books from the Friends of the Napa County Library. These books will help us start the program. We are very grateful to Bruce Taylor, who runs book sales for the library for helping us seed our program.
Before we can start collecting books, we need volunteers to help us sort and package the books. We need both English and Spanish speakers. Our volunteers will package books in bundles according to lexile reading level and wrap the bundles in butcher paper. Once we have books sorted and bundled, they will be made available on racks outside the HMS office. Obviously, this program cannot be successful without committed volunteers.

Once we have our volunteers in place, we will be ready to begin collecting books from HMS families. We will need both English and Spanish books to serve our HMS community. You will be able to donate books to our program by visiting Harvest and dropping books in the provided boxes outside the office. Because the boxes are outside, you can simply drive up, drop off the books, and exit the campus promptly. You must wear a mask at all times.
NOTE: Please only donate books that are appropriate for kids in grades 5-9. Books for younger or older kids can be donated to the Friends of the Napa County Library at 580 Coombs Street.
Once we have enough books and have sorted them, we will let you know that the program is ready for families to pick books up at school. We will quarantine books for at least 72 hours when received to keep everyone safe. Once books are used by your family, we will ask that you return them to the boxes outside the office so they can be sorted and used by other families.
