Connor Castro and Sophia Dean are pleased to introduce to you one of our newest library books.  Boz's Pumpkin Party by Michael Anthony Steele is a fun-filled book about a very popular bear.  Stop by the library and check it out!




Books to Celebrate DIVERSITY!

Stop by the library to view some awesome books that celebrate diversity.  Throughout the library there are several displays that offer biographies about athletes, authors, great thinkers, people with perseverance, leaders, musicians, men, and women.  In celebration of Black History Month, we also have a special section of biographies about famous African Americans.  The students have checked out these books in amazing numbers!  Pictured below are some of Mrs. Verzosa's first grade students after finding their "just right" book.
