LINDEN – All of the students at Linden Public School No. 1 will be receiving books thanks to Barnes & Noble’s Holiday Book Drive, held in conjunction with the United Way.
“This generous donation is very helpful in several ways,” said Dr. Rocco Tomazic, assistant superintendent, Linden Public Schools. “First, it adds to our resources to get kids excited about reading. Second, it helps our families of limited means by providing ready access to a wide variety of books for out of class reading. Kids need to read at home and at school,” he added. “This book ‘give away’ by United Way and Barnes & Noble helps bring to our district more books beyond those we have planned for in our budget.” “The Linden Public Schools,” he continued, “greatly appreciates this generosity and we know it will be of ongoing benefit to our students.”
