Rockville Shelter Receives Books from Kindergarteners

The Geneva Day School kindergarten class recently held a book drive with the goal of collecting 100 new children’s books to donate to Stepping Stones Shelter in Rockville, according to a news release.

In addition to fostering a spirit of giving back to the community, teachers Ann Hepburn, Debra Lieberman and Jane Mondonedo also used the opportunity as a math lesson. The class counted and tallied all of the books they collected, which more than doubled their intended donation with a grand total of 203 books.

Geneva Day School is a private school offering engaging preschool and kindergarten programs for young children beginning at age two. It’s located at 11931 Seven Locks Road in Potomac.
