Congratulations to the winners of the "Are You Smarter Than the Librarian?" contest! Enjoy your ultimate bragging rights—you actually outsmarted the librarian!

I am thrilled to celebrate our very first Student Librarian of the Month! Each month, a new student librarian is selected to curate a special section of our library. Selected students get to:

Over the past two weeks, our students have been fascinated by a front-row seat to nature's magic as our caterpillar transformed into a Monarch butterfly!

Our classes celebrated this hands-on learning experience with dynamic, grade-level activities:

• Pre-K–1st Grade read The Very Hungry Caterpillar and created beautiful artwork detailing the complete life cycle of a butterfly.

• 2nd–3rd Grade enjoyed reading The Very Impatient Caterpillar and drew their own portraits of the main character.

• 4th–5th Grade put their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills to the test in a lively Butterfly Escape Room challenge.

To conclude our unit, we released our Monarch into the wild! Before sending it off, we placed a special tracking tag on its wing, and we are excited to follow its incredible migration journey all the way south to Mexico.

A huge shoutout to all of our incredible Coyote readers who participated in our September Reading Challenge! Our students logged countless hours of reading, filled their bingo boards, and brought so much enthusiasm to our campus.
