Library Newsletter

Check out the library statistics from this past school year! If you had to guess, which school library had the most book check outs? HB Patch, OES or the OMS/OHS Library?

By not reading for one summer, students can lose up to 30% of reading skills they learned from this past school year! Let's avoid that by making reading a daily habit.

How can you beat the Summer Slide?

• Make reading a daily habit
• Read at least 6 books this summer
• Take part in the Public Library Summer Reading Program

Print a copy of the Summer Reading Log to fill out this summer. Track your books, make a reading wishlist and take part in some fun activities on your own or through the Omro Public Library's Summer Reading Program.

Happy Summer Reading!
