Do it for my mom.

A longtime librarian, she’d be all for an ongoing program offered by Scholastic which pledges to get a new book into the hands of kindergarteners during each month of the school year.

Coupeville Elementary School teachers are currently raising funds to allow their students to participate in the program.

The program allows the purchase of a wide variety of books, including fiction, nonfiction, and chapter books, said CES teacher Christi Messner.

“Having donations allows us to give students their choice of book to help install a love for reading!!!” she said.

To make the program a reality, Coupeville teachers need to raise $1,500.

It’s the first of many milestones, school-wise.

Coupeville’s kindergartners got their walking papers Wednesday, and now head off to 1st grade in the fall.

But before they went, the future leaders of our town snagged awards, hugs, and a chance to get page hits for their local sports blogger.

That’s a win-win in my book.
