Bad Kitty 

Author Visit Contest

Bad Kitty Contest

Would you like to sit in the front row during our Nick Bruel virtual visit? Maybe you would like to ask Nick a question. The Top 5 students based on AR points in each third and second-grade classroom will get a front-row experience with the author of all the Bad Kitty books! 

Virtual Author Visit is Feb. 16th.

 Any student that reaches 50 AR points by December 11, 2022, will not only have lunch in the library but also earn Little Caesar’s Pizza in the library! We will have two classroom pizza parties as well. The class with the most AR points for K-2nd grade and the class with the most AR points for 3-5th grade will receive a pizza party. 

Feel free to look up AR books by visiting https://www.arbookfind.com/default.aspx. 

Pizza parties will take place the week before winter break.
