LOVE OUR SCHOOL LIBRARY
CMS is holding a digital book drive to purchase new books for the CMS library.

The campus budget for library books is only enough to purchase 25 books this year. A lot of that will have to be used to replace books that are lost or damaged leaving very little to purchase new selections.

In order to supplement the budget CMS is running a digital book drive where families can purchase books for the library. The books on this list are books that the library does not have in the collection. Many are new books from popular series and other new publications. They have all been reviewed and approved to be added to GCISD libraries.

Books should be purchased through the Bound to Stay Bound book drive site because this is a library book vendor and these books are intended for library use. They have more durable binding that holds up to repeated use, and they are already processed for our library with protective covers and stickers so when they arrive they can go straight on the shelves.

Here is the link to purchase books www.btsb.com/sosl/colleyvillemiddleschool

Here is a flyer with more information about the book drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1935wIbBgC2r-Lw1j3946uKEeMPtpW467/view?usp=sharing


8th GRADE CELEBRATION
8th grade parents, please Save the Date for our first volunteer/planning meeting for 8th grade celebration on Tuesday, January 28th at 5:30 p.m. in the upstairs area of Market Street. We will be discussing the theme, ideas and volunteer opportunities. More information will be sent out soon and we will be posting on our 8th grade facebook parent group. 8th Grade Celebration is Friday, May 16th from 6:30-9:30 p.m. at Compass Center. If you have any questions or can’t make the meeting but still want to volunteer, please contact Jill Nelson, 8th Grade Celebration Chair at jnels327@yahoo.com or 508-244-161
