LUNCH TIME LIBRARY RULES: If you are going to be in the library during lunch time, you MUST be something such as playing a game (checkers, chess etc.), doing puzzles, reading, or drawing, etc. You may not just sit and "chat" with your friends. It creates a very noisy environment for the library, which is not conducive to a calm, relaxing, and quieter place where students can unwind. If your sole purpose is to "chat" with friends, you will be asked to leave and find an alternative place in the school to socialize. Thank you for making the library a great place!

Banned Books Week October 5 - 11
Banned Books Week is an annual awareness campaign that celebrates the freedom to read, draws attention to banned and challenged books.
