[aisle] End of Year Book Return

[Sullivan, Kathy]

You make great points, Carolyn, that I fully agree with.
Something that's been helpful here is posting Wanted signs around the
school during the last 2 weeks of the semester featuring the covers of
lost, missing books I'm hoping someone will find and return. I've attached
this year's version ... it already brought back one lost book!
