Make a Difference with DESEF!
Dear Disney Families,

DESEF supports funding for Walt Disney’s paraprofessionals (who help teachers and students), our TK/Kindergarten music program, Dragon Academy (academic intervention), Rainbow Room (social and emotional learning), STEM learning, and more. To run these programs, we raise funds over the year with the help of amazing parent volunteers.

We are currently looking for parent volunteers for the 2021-2022 school year. This will provide a wonderful opportunity to work with other parents and be involved in the decision making process.

If you would like to volunteer or know someone who is interested, please contact our President, Lauren Shimek at desedfoundation@comcast.net.

Online Book Fair is Here!
Junior Library Guild

Mark your calendars and get ready for some fun! We are hosting an online book fair! 

Book Fair Dates: January 25th - February 7th. 

I am so excited about this book fair and wanted to share some highlights with you:

• Our partner for this online book fair is Junior Library Guild. JLG is a book-selection service that until now has only been available to librarians. Over 40,000 new books for children and young adults are published annually and JLG only selects the top 3% for its collection. So, you KNOW these books are going to be good! 

• Shop from the comfort and safety of home! With health concerns and social-distancing requirements, this online fair is the perfect way for you to shop from the safety of your home. And you can shop using any major debit or credit card – no cash needed! 

• Direct-to-home delivery! Every purchase from our online book fair will be delivered straight to your door. You can also shop teacher wish lists and those books will be shipped directly to their classrooms. Easy peasy! 

• Books starting at $5! Most books in our online fair will be hardcover and first edition with library-quality binding. Books start as low as $5—and shipping is FREE for all orders over $30. 

• Supports our school library! Our library receives a percentage of every book fair purchase, and we can use these funds raised as JLG credit to add more quality books to our collection and receive funds in cash for other needs. Your support is so appreciated!

Keep an eye out for more information about our online JLG@Home Book Fair. Thank you in advance for supporting Walt Disney Library and helping us put quality books in the hands of our students!

Thank You!
Anneli Eriksson, LMC
