Welcome to the Cuellar Library

Our library is open to our students during the school day through regular scheduled library classes or the circulation plan. Virtual Library Nights will be announced on school calendars and will have live reading session for one hour after 4 pm. On library nights, the Accelerated Reader program is open for at home testing from 4-6 pm.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, our school library offers special curbside circulation. Please see our Print Book Request page or use Class Dojo for curbside checkout. We are only allowing curbside drop off/pick up library books by the front foyer on Fridays. Books requested may see a delay in order processing. We thank you for your patience and understanding.

Personal Mission Statement

I will focus on improving the present version of myself and all my students. I will utilize my past experiences to grow, but not dwell on them. I will not worry about the future, and instead have faith. I will Just Do IT… I have it in me.

“You may fail, but fall still fighting; don’t give up whate’er you do; eyes front, held high to the finish. SEE IT THROUGH! – E. A. Guest

Dr. Sonia Renee' Alvarado, EdD
