Fall Book Drive
When students knew that they were going to receive new books at the Fall Book Drive, they asked to donate used books from their own personal libraries to children impacted by Hurricane Irma. Students, local author Kyle Miller and others donated the books, which were later presented to the children at Bonita Springs Elementary School. Many of their homes in the Imperial River area were devastated by the flooding. A total of 505 books were received by the storm victims.
