Library Re-Vitalization Project

Picture
Thanks to Target and the Heart of America Foundation, the Trotter School received a beautiful library makeover.  In the process, over 3500 books had to be purged because some material was dated as far back as 30 years!  We are steadily rebuilding our collection, and the library is now the heart of the school.  Please contact our librarian, Suzanne Mathews at smathews@boston.k12.ma.us  if you would like to make donations or contributions towards its re-vitalization.  You can also help by purchasing books on our Amazon wishlist using this link: Amazon Wish List
