PS 39 Author Visit Program

PS 39's author visit program brings a diverse collection of authors and illustrators  to our school to help our students learn first-hand about the art of writing. Our program is funded by the money raised by our students through our annual spring Read-a-thon hosted in May during National Screen-Free Week.  Each grade level has a visit with an author and receives a signed copy of the book the author shares.

If you are interested in supporting our author visit program and other literacy events, please donate through our Parent Association.
