Book Drive at Papalote School

[Michele]

The students in the 1er year of Preperatoria at Bachillerato Naciones Unidas/El Papalote School are conducting a community project in their Ethics and Values ​​class. Under the supervision of their teacher, Miss Hannah, the students will be collecting and donating book to support the Public City Library. They are asking for your cooperation to collect books (in good condition). The goal is to ultimately collect 70 kg of books! If you have any books to contribute, there is a "drop slot" on the entrance gate to the school, which is located on Ave. 25 and calle 32. We appreciate your support for this cause.

Les informamos que los alumnos de 1º de Preparatoria están realizando un proyecto de ayuda a la comunidad en la clase de Ética y Valores a cargo de Miss Hannah y han decidido apoyar a la Biblioteca Municipal con la donación de libros; por este motivo pedimos de su colaboración para recolectar libros (en buen estado), la meta es juntar 70 kg de libros. En un costado de la reja de entrada del colegio sobre la Av. 25 se encuentra un contenedor en donde podrán depositar los libros que quieran donar. Agradecemos de antemano su apoyo a esta causa.

What type of books are needed? What reading level?

[Michele]

Anything and everything. It is for the public library in Playa!

[marciad5]

Another stupid question-do they only want books in Spanish?

[Michele]

No. It is for a public library and MANY languages are spoken here!!

Till when can books be dropped off? I am leaving Playa after years and sure have some books I cannot bring with me.

[Michele]

I will ask today at the school. I am assuming the drive will last until the end of the school year. If for any reason, you cannot manage to drop the books before then, I would be happy to help you get them into the hands of people that need them.
