Dear Menominee Families,

We need your help, starting on February 14th and continuing through March 14th, Menominee will have the opportunity to earn up to 500 free books for our Media Center! We Give Books is giving away 150,000 books nationwide to schools who participate in their online reading program. Each school is eligible to earn up to 500 books for participating.

We need you, Menominee families, to participate and help us get as many free books as we can for our children to read. Participation is easy, sign up at www.wegivebooks.org. Indicate that your school is Menominee Elementary, Plymouth. Make sure you are reading for the, Read For My School campaign, under the campaign page. Now when you are on the homepage, select an online book to read. When you are done reading the book click on, “Donate This Book”, this will add the book to our total amount of books read. To be eligible to receive free books we must have at least 50 books read.

With your help we can get many great books for free. Participation is voluntary but very much appreciated.

Thank You!
