Or should I say we have 10 winners! Due to an overwhelming response to our “Want to Enhance Your Classroom Library- For the Love of Reading” blog post on May 19th, we decided to increase the number of winners to 10 schools with $400 in books to enhance their classroom library. 

We had almost 500 responses to our post! We were very impressed with all of the entries. It was very clear that the teachers in Kent County have a love of reading and a love for their students.  We wish we could have helped everyone.

Thank you to everyone that entered.

And the winners are…

• Mitchell Ziomkowski from San Juan Diego Academy
• Jamie Lewis from Thornapple Kellogg Middle School
