Mrs.Marcia
Longo and
her PreK3 class
at Holy Trinity Catholic School have
just won the "Care
Where You Are" Sweepstakes,
a national sweepstakes sponsored by Scholastic Book Clubs, and will soon
be donating their prize – 500 books from Scholastic – to the
Child Development Center, Bay-Waveland Headstart, Hope Haven and more.
The prizewinners were participants in Scholastic Book Clubs’ ClassroomsCare
program
– a philanthropic literacy initiative that encourages reading by asking
classrooms across the country to read 100 books, and in turn, Scholastic
Book Clubs will donate up to 1 million books to kids in need.
Mrs. Longo’s
class was one of only 200 across the nation to win the prize out of almost
16,000 classes that entered the sweepstakes.
