We have come a long way on our total number of missing books! We are down to 42 books still checked out at this time. If your student still has a book (or two) missing, please help them look at home., in a vehicle, and return to school.
Our little free library (in front of the school) is fully stocked with books that would love to go home for the summer with you.

Great places to look: old bookbags, current bookbags, under the sofa, in the sofa cushions, under the bed, on a bookshelf (or book basket - books like to find their friends), in the car, in a closet...and so many other places.
