The Kiwanis Club of South Pasadena recently donated three mobile libraries to each South Pasadena Unified School District elementary school.
Students from Arroyo Vista, Marengo, and Monterey Hills are allowed to select a free book from the mobile library during recess or lunch on a regular basis.
Designed to help foster a love of reading, the bookmobiles offer a range of genres and reading levels. Each bookmobile features school colors and logos, and Kiwanis volunteers will generously replenish the books.
“Thank you to our friends and partners from the Kiwanis Club of South Pasadena for encouraging SPUSD students to read,” said SPUSD district officials in a statement.
For more information, contact the assistant to the superintendent, Sylvia Carroll, at scarroll@spusd.net.
