Frequently Asked Questions
Who is eligible for this program and how do I register my child?
All pre-schoolers and current kindergartners residing in the Plymouth River School district are eligible to enroll in the program. You can register for the program here.
It is essential for you to view the online 1000 Book Club slide show before you select your first bag. It will explain all the details as to how the program works.
What if a book is missing from the bag we are taking (or returning)?
Place the bag in the 1000 Book Club bin. Be sure to check the books that belong in the bag both BEFORE you sign it out, and again when you RETURN it. There is a photo list in each bag of the books that belong in that bag.
Families will be held accountable for the books/bags signed out to them.
What if a book in the bag is not interesting to my child?
Feel free to read a book from another source (home or public library), or just talk about the pictures in the book. Don't feel you have to read every word if the book is beyond your child's comprehension level. If a book seems "too simple" for your child, perhaps he or she could "read" the words. If your child is not interested in the subject matter presented in the book, then choose another from your own library! Please remember, the main focus of the program is for your child to enjoy sharing books and stories with you. If a book is not enjoyable, for whatever reason, it is best not to force it.
What do I do if the sign-out card is full?
Place the bag in the 1000 Book Club bin. We will replace the card with a new one and place it back on the rack.
How many bags may we take at one time?
Families may take only one bag at a time and return it within two (2) weeks.
When may we exchange bags?
When school is in session - 7:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
During school vacations - 7:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.
Please DO NOT park in the bus loop.
What do I do when my child reaches a "milestone" bag?
When a child has completed one of the “milestones” of 25, 50, 75, or 100 bags, parents may compete an online form.
How long can we stay in the 1000 Book Club program?
Families may continue to check out book bags and receive milestone awards until June of the year their child "graduates" from kindergarten or reaches the goal of 1000 books (whichever comes first).
After kindergarten, families may continue to check out bags until the end of first grade but the children will NOT be eligible for milestone awards.
