We hit our Book Credits goal!

Rose Linda School, Phoenix, Arizona

We are in the Roosevelt School District No. 66 in the South Phoenix community of Arizona.  Rose Linda services Headstart through Eighth grade students with a population of 590 students.  Our student population consists of 96% Hispanic, 3% African-American and 1% other nationalities.  We are a Title I school and 92% of the students participate in the free lunch and 8% of the students participate in the reduced lunch program.
 
This year we introduced a reading intervention program, called "Success for All".  This program has a component which requires our children to read 30 minutes a day for homework.  As with many low social economic communities, our children do not have adequate reading materials in their homes.  Your program will help provide our students with books at their reading level to help support reading at home.  All children deserve the opportunity to become successful students and this begins with being good readers.  With your help, this can become a reality.

Thank you in advance, PaperBackSwap members, for any assistance you can give us.

 Sincerely,

 Irene E. Lopez, Rose Linda School Principal
