Let's Talk Philadelphia...Thomas J. Palumbo, Ed. 
Hello,
Thank you for stopping me today in the library. As an educator I cannot tell you how valuable it is to have resources to be able to help the younger generations get excited about learning! I would like to discuss the programs and workshops you mentioned. Thank you so much for the books you gave to David. He really needed that act of kindness today. He is my best friends son and was told he wasn’t allowed to stay in the private Christian school we both worked so hard to send our kids to. Smaller class sizes aren’t always better. I homeschooled my two children until this year. I took a leap of faith and sent them to school this year. Everything for a reason. Thank you for making David’s day. Truly.
