Marcellus Grange has been giving dictionaries to Third Grade students for at least 10 years. We do receive thank you notes from parents.. Excellent project – it helps innumerable students, and keeps on going!.

We have been donating for several year. Our past Grange Master Henry Eiden wanted this project supported after his passing. It was his favorite project to support.

They are very excited that they get to keep them and use them..

This will be our 9th year for the “Words for Thirds” project. It is such a plesure to see how excited the students are to receive a book of their own. Teachers are very grateful as well. Our members who help distribute the dictionaries really enjoy the time spent with the children. It always makes us feel good..
