Frederick Douglas Elementary School Library Book Drive

Frederick Douglas Elementary School (Pre-K through 6) had a school library that did not meet TEA guidelines because there were less than eight books per child. Class VIII decided to raise money and in-kind donations to bring the library up to standards. Book bins were placed at Randall’s, Brentano’s and other locations to collect donations. Funds raised by the class allowed the students to choose books from the public library’s Used Book Sale and a celebration carnival was held at school for the class, teachers and parents.
