April is National Poetry Month AND School Library Month!

April 1-30th is National Poetry Month and we look forward to celebrating some of our favorite authors and poets! We love reading through poetry anthologies and novels in verse!


April 1-30th is also School Library Month! All month long we'll be busting myths around school libraries.

Library Open After School for April

In an effort to be available to students for a place to catch a break, print, check out books or do work, we will remain open after school until 11:30am for the month of April. Students should plan to sign in at the front by the hand sanitizer station AND again when they sit down.
