Dear All,
We are planning a Bingo for Books night at Stapleton Public Schools. It will be at 5:30 on March 4, 2024. We will also have a pie social and speech demonstration following the Bingo. We would like every child that attends to leave with a book. We are asking the community to see if anyone has new or nearly new books they would like to donate to the school for this event. If you have books you would like to donate please bring them or send them with a child to school. Mrs. Isom’s will keep them until Bingo night. I am very excited about this activity and want as many kids as we can to participate.
Thanks!
Bobbi Isom
