BWF brook drive
Kindergartner Aubrey Engel holds a book from her school’s recent book drive.
For two days at the end of the school year, Brookwood Forest Ranger PTO hosted a book drive to collect donations of gently used books to enhance BWF classroom libraries. Enabling a student to put their hands on the right book at the right time in a classroom library is important to the growth of a student.
Once the books were collected, BWF sixth graders organized and sorted the books to allow teachers to “shop” for their own classroom libraries. At the conclusion of the teacher shopping days, all unclaimed books were donated to Jonesboro Elementary and Westhills Elementary, two schools in the Bessemer City Schools system affected by the spring tornadoes.
