Why worry about programming?

• Student Literacy• Student Involvement• School Climate• Job Security• Necessary but

expensive

How do I make it work?

• Announce limited seating sign ups for crowd control

• Have a permission slip with time, cost and transportation details

• Look at calendars to avoid clashing with too many events

The Usual Suspects

• Author Visits• Book Fair• Book Clubs with one
