Dallas Pi Phi volunteers decorate bookplates at West Dallas Community School

Members of the Dallas Alumnae Club of Pi Beta Phi spent the day at West Dallas Community School with 4th grade students from Mrs. Angela Elledge’s art classes.  The students pulled out their colored pencils to decorate and personalize bookplates to be affixed into books that First Book, Pi Phi’s partner in literacy, will distribute to children in need.
