Welcome back to a great new year!
I
am so thrilled to get things started this year! Already, there are
plans in motion for new programs, fun Storytime, and more exciting
changes to our library.
I hope everyone
had a wonderful summer. I know I did with a nice trip up to the Redwoods
and a coastal drive back home. We also fostered a dog and got her a new
home. The other thing I did was summer reading at the public library.
Did anyone else participate? Reading challenges, prizes, and tons of
programs happen at every branch! I even won one of those prizes, which
got us some new games here in the library! If you missed this time,
don’t worry, they will do another one during winter break, so be sure to
check out your local library and keep the whole family reading!
I
came back here to a wonderful donation of books from Harvest Home
Animal Sanctuary, and shortly after, I received another large donation,
so we are off to a refreshing start with lots of new books being added
weekly to our shelves. See the image for a sampling of some of our
newest titles!
Reading is so important for
our students' development for their future and we ask each of you to
help keep their reading progress strong. Read daily. Read to your child,
let them read to you, or even just sit with them reading your own book
sets a great example and can be a great habit to start! Students are
expected to read regularly and take comprehension quizzes, via
Accelerated Reader, so please help them achieve their goals.
