We were so glad to have about 25 parents and students who participated in our Bilingual Book Club Breakfast!!!! Thank you for your support! We talked about the importance of reading, and I have some great news to share with you! We now have about 200 Spanish/English books available for checkout in our Hanford Dole library. There are a few which are only in Spanish. Please take advantage of this wonderful resource, check out these great books, and read to your child or read along with them or let them read to you! -----------------------------------------------------------------.
