On April 29th and 30th, Polk Street School held its second annual Book Swap during each recess period. In the weeks preceding the event, students brought in "gently used" books from their home collections to donate. On the days of the Book Swap, students then selected "new " books to take home. They were allowed to take the same number of books they had brought in. Once again, the program was a success, promoting reading and providing excitement for students. Thank you to all on Polk Street School's Building Team, especially Mrs. Cartelli and Mrs. Cosgrove, for organizing the event, and thank you also to the many parent volunteers.

Also by being a Compact Kid it was even more fun becuase we got to sort books during our lunch period. It was very fun working with the Compact Kids, Mrs.Hunt, Mrs.Cartelli, and last but not least Mrs.Cosgrove!!!!
