Leaders for Readers & Book Club is a student-driven reading program designed to increase younger students’ reading ability, while building self esteem and leadership qualities in older students. 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Leaders volunteer their time after school to share their skills and love of reading with 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders. Students take ownership and pride in this program that instills a love of reading and a philosophy of service. Today, over half of the student body of Saint Raphael School is involved in the program.

Please help support Saint Raphael School by shopping at Barnes & Noble, 313 Corte Madera Town Center, December 8-14, 2013, with a Bookfair voucher or by shopping online at www.bn.com/bookfairs.  For more information, contact Laurel Kidd, Community Relations Manager for Barnes & Noble Corte Madera, at crm2274@bn.com.
