The Friends of the S. D. Public Library, a volunteer group which helps the library system in many ways, is having a special used book sale just for teachers. The sale will be held Saturday, March 1, 9:30 - noon, at the University Heights branch library, 4193 Park Blvd. A supporter of the Friends organization has arranged for the books to be sold as a two-for-one to teachers with an I.D. This will allow teachers to get two hardcover books for a dollar, or two paperback or children's books for 50 cents. Proceeds from the sale will benefit the library's children's collections citywide.
The Association of African American Educators (AAAE) is hosting its AAAE Annual Conference, March 7 from 3 - 9 p.m. and March 8 from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m., at the Mission Valley Hilton. The conference will provide an opportunity for educators, parents and students to hear from researchers and motivational speakers who present strategies that are directed to the unique learning styles of African American students, and participate in discussions and problem-solving sessions. Participants are expected to take strategies back to school sites and communities for implementation in plans and to improve teaching and learning practices. A specific focus will be paid to the academic achievement of African American students who are among the lowest achievers. The conference fee is $125 for both days. For more information and to make a reservation, please contact Dr. Juel Moore at (619) 286-8769 or email gpjamoore@aol.com.
