The annual Spring Ridge Book Swap will be back this February. If you are going through your children’s books this holiday season to make room for new ones, please save some for the Book Swap. We especially need books for our older readers. Parents of 4th & 5th graders, we welcome any chapter books you may be able to donate! New to Spring Ridge and wondering what a Book Swap is? Book Swap is a time when students can trade in their lightly used books for books that other students have turned into the swap. Here’s how it works: In early February, students can bring in as many lightly used books as they want to donate. On the date of the Book Swap (Wednesday, February 26th), students can shop the Swap! They can take up to 4 new-to-them books home, depending on how many books they bring to the swap. For example, if your child brings 4 or more books to trade, he/she may take 4 books. If your child brings 3 books to trade, he/she may choose 3 to take home, and so on and so forth. What do we do with the extra books? Teachers get to shop the Swap as well! Any remaining books will be donated to an Omaha school or the A Book of My Own program run by the Jr. League of Omaha.
