Mrs. Chesnut's class received a monetary donation from Ms. Kay to use at the TGS book fair. The students used part of the money to pay it forward. They purchased two books for Mrs. Kreke's kindergarten class which they have been reading with all year. One book was given to Ms. Funneman, Youth Librarian from Effingham Public Library, who has led the TGS Rebecca Caudill Book Club all year. They were also able to get three new books for their classroom.
