What do our schools have to say about Capital BookShare?

“The book fair was an excellent avenue for our teachers and I, as the librarian, to gather popular books (fiction or nonfiction) and resource books for our school.  The book fair provided multiple copies of quality reading materials.  The support and genrosity of the staff make it easy to browse the many genres of books and it was ALL free at no cost to us which was truly indeed a blessing to us.  The teachers and I look forward to many years of working with this cooperative project (book fair).”

“Dear Ms. Fox,

Thank you so much for starting such a wonderful organization!  I truly appreciate your efforts and you definitely made an impact on my classroom already!  As I said in my email to Claudia, the students are super excited about all of the new books and they can’t wait to read them!

Thanks,

“Dear Claudia,

Thank you so much for the wonderful event last night!!!  I was the annoying teacher that stayed through the end :).

My students will TRULY benefit from your generosity.  Already, two students in for Parent Teacher Conferences have been able to pick a book as a reward and are very excited about the new books added to our classroom library!  I am very excited to use a book on Peru that I found in our next Social Studies unit, and there are many more exceptional treasures that I found and will be loved by students for years to come!!!

Thank you a million times over.  You all made a huge difference in my life as a teacher!

Thanks,

Catherine Chu”, Browne Education Campus

 

“Dear Ms. Fox,

“Thank you so much for the wonderful art books, reproductions and other art materials. We have already begun to put them to use. The students are excited about all of the books especially the drawing books. “The Capital BookShare” donation has really added significantly to our art classroom resources. It was a pleasure talking with you and members of your organization. Thanks again for thinking of us. “
