Library Update and Bobcat Book Club:
Thank you all for helping your kids with their library books during the first semester. We had 10, 944 overall circulations with Mrs. Mitchell’s class in the lead with 822 circulations. Please continue to help your child manage their library books.
Exciting news! We are starting the Bobcat Book Club back up again! Look for more information next week. It will include the same overall premise of keeping track of minutes read, but this time students will earn prizes for their accomplishments. I’m hoping to get the kids excited about the program next week!
