Jennifer Gaylord, Jeff Reinhard and Dr. David Axner accept a check for $500 from Dublin AM Rotary to purchase books for Daniel Wright Elementary School.
“Thank you on behalf of the 537 students and 70 staff of Daniel Wright Elementary School,” announced Principal Jeff Reinhard upon receiving a check from Dublin AM Rotary’s Literacy Committee, “and from the School Board and Dublin City Schools Administration.
The money is used to buy books for the children. Twenty one languages are spoken at the school, half of the students are economically disadvantaged, and many of them don’t have books of their own at home. Your support of the children is awesome!
Every day, we see the love of learning that you help to foster reflected in the eyes and smiles of the children.”
Principal Reinhard concluded by promising that Daniel Wright staff would lay a beat-down on Dublin Schools Administration in an upcoming Dodge Ball Tournament. Rotarians are encouraged to check Superintendent Dr. David Axner for bruises at our next Rotary meeting.
