A generous volunteer who loves children and books has matched our Grow a Home Library book giveaway grant request!! We are very grateful to have the opportunity to offer twice as many inspirational titles to our Book Give Away event! Thank you!

Students have been reading Wishtree by Katherine Applegate. Wishtree has an important message: We should accept people even if they’re different and get to know them before we judge them.

“Wishtrees have a long and honorable history, going back centuries. There are many in Ireland, where they are usually hawthorns or the occasional ash tree. But you can find wish trees all over the world.It’s a tradition to wish on the first of May, but people can wish throughout the year.”

-Katherine Appplegate, Wishtree

Students have been hanging their wishes and dreams for 2022 from various trees of their choice; in forest classrooms and around the school yard.
