SUPPORT WHITTIER INTERNATIONAL'S LIBRARY

Whether you’re traveling the globe or merely going to one of our local bookstores, remember - In order to meet International Baccalaureate authorization requirements, Whittier must have a collection of books in the "home" or first languages of our international students. These books will be housed in the school library where they will be available for staff, students and parents to check out. We would appreciate book donations to help us with this endeavor. All donations should be appropriate for an elementary school environment. Thanks!

I've set up a Whittier account at the fabulous used bookstore, THE BOOKWORM (3175 28th Street, 303-449-3765). You can sell your books to The Bookworm and donate the money toour account. Whittier would really appreciate it.
