Great Summer Book Swap

The Great DWE Summer Book Swap

Bring in your gently used books and trade them in for “new to you” books to read over the summer!

Deerwood and Foster students are invited to participate in our DWE Summer Book Swap. The Book Swap will be held in the Deerwood Media Center. Our goal is to send every Dolphin and Bulldog reader home with at least one “new to you” book.

All participating students must return a permission slip signed by a parent or guardian.

We are excited to announce the Great Summer Book Swap, a fantastic opportunity for students to exchange books and enhance their summer reading experience!

To participate, students are invited to turn in books between May 5th and May 16th.
