Building Literacy

Holding a Movie Night?  Most movies require licensing. Check out these links for movie licenses. These are not endorsements, but sources for you to explore and investigate.  Some things to consider: Some licenses only cover indoor events.  If you plan to host two or more events a year, a year-long license might be worth the cost.  If you have specific titles in mind, check prior to purchase to ensure they are included.  Note that SWANK has a special deal with PTA.  Link below!
