Keep Calm and Study On

Dear Parents,

Wow!  January went by so quickly!  February Night Writes are due on February 26th.  If you would like your child to do more practice outside of school, you are always welcome to use the other February Night Write prompts.  Parents are teachers, too, and I always appreciate your help and support.

From Mrs. Bamford:
Library Spring Reading Incentive
The library Spring Reading Incentive is in full swing!  Packets with reading logs went home last week. All reading logs are due February 28th to receive your free theme park tickets.  For Six Flags, read 6 hours. For Schlitterbahn, read 10 hours. The same reading can be used for both, but the two reading logs need to be filled out individually.  You can get another copy of the form HERE or on the LIBRARY WEBSITE.

Checking Library Accounts from Home
Did you know that you or your student can check their library accounts from home?  All you need is their student ID number (without the “s”). CLICK HERE or THIS PAGE on the library website to learn how.
