Books Needed for Book Swap

RCF’s annual book swap is Monday, June 9. Our goal is for each student to take home at least two books for summer reading. To achieve this goal, we need your donations of gently used PreK through grade 5 books (English or Spanish). There is a donation bin inside the front doors of the school. Please send books with your students or drop them off during school hours. We are most in need of upper grade (3rd-5th) books, and graphic novels are always very popular. Let’s make sure all our RCF Tigres have summer reading materials!
