Book Donations

As you purge your bookshelf, please consider donating your gently used books to the school.  We have wall pockets in the K, 1, 4 and 5 halls as well as a book trade bookshelf in the 2/3 hall.  This is a great time to help stock the 1st grade wall hanger as they gear up for Parade of Readers.

 
Library Volunteers 

The sign up for library volunteers is up. Most important are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday mornings, since our library aide isn't there those days.  Volunteers scan the books out to the students, check books in and shelve the books as time permits.  Please consider working a shift in our library.  
Please note - if you can only work a portion of the shift listed, that is ok.  We appreciate all the help we can get!
