Fortis Grammar students have a tradition of having a classical book exchange at the Christmas party. If you would like your child to participate, please send a wrapped new or gently used classical book. You may want to specify if the book would appeal more to boys or girls, but that's not necessary. Here’s a list of classical books if you’d like some ideas.
