This morning April 29, 2016, Bruce Bradshaw and his wife Sue attended the start of the James Getty RIF day at the invitation of the Gettysburg PTO RIF sponsor Mike Flaherty. He and two PTO volunteers manned the front corridor lobby with tables filled with books identified for each grade level. He was also able to meet with Mrs. Donna Harrison, the James Getty Principal and present her with the Optimist check for $1400. The RIF program provides each student three books each year with books given out from kindergarten to the fifth grade. If a student stays in the Gettysburg system he/she will have received 18 books from the Optimist supported RIF program.
For 15 minutes, each class was given time to choose books. Here’s the schedule:
