First Book Club Meeting Friday

Sixth and seventh graders are invited to the first meeting of our library book club on Friday during lunch. We will play a "get acquainted" book game, talk about book club plans, and have raffle prizes. All sixth and seventh graders are invited.

The library phone is finally working! You can reach me at 889-2134 ext. 8. Extension 230 still works, but 8 is shorter :)

News Update

All seventh and eighth graders visited the library Sept. 2 and 3 to check out books, and we began sixth grade orientations on Sept. 4. Each sixth grade class visits for two periods to learn about the library and then check out books. All sixth graders will have visited by September 12. We plan to also be open before school (at 8:15 A.M.), lunch, after school (until 3:45 P.M.), and for Accelerated Reader quizzes after school on Wednesday, Sept. 10. If you are a new seventh or eighth grader, please be sure to watch the online library orientation to learn all about how the library and our Accelerated Reader program work. Parents are also welcome to watch the orientation for more information about the library.

Unfortunately, the library telephone is still not functioning, so please contact me with any questions by email at jlofton@lvusd.org.
