Book-O-Ween is just around the corner and we are looking for your support as a volunteer!

Book-O-Ween is about refocusing the energy around Halloween to incorporate reading and the importance of literacy. This year we are asking volunteers to join in on the fun and share the gift of literacy with our students at CentroNía through reading your favorite Spanish or English children's book.

This year, students will range from infants and toddlers (1-2 years old) to PreK (3-4 years old), if you have an age preference please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your request. Additionally, if you have a book in mind that you would like to read, let us know and we can put you with the correct age group.

Please arrive at CentroNía at 1420 Columbia Rd, NW by 9:00 am on Thursday, October 31. Book character costumes are highly encouraged, but not required.

We look forward to seeing you!
