On March 20th thru the 24th the Pell School held a book fair to raise money to purchase more books for the Pell Library.
The Newport Rotary Club provided Scholastic Dollars to assist more than 860 students participating at the Pell School Book Fair.
With the financial assistance of the Newport Rotary Club every student that participated, was able to purchase a book. In the past only about one third of the students were able to buy a book. Over 300 different titles were available for students to choose from.
The Newport Rotary Club donation helped the book fair to be its most successful to date. With Scholastic Dollars and proceeds earned from the book fair, the Pell School Library will purchase nearly $4000 in books to be put in circulation for use by current and future students.
