LIBRARY BOOKS
Now is a good time to begin searching for any library books that may be hiding in your house or your car. All books are due on Friday, May 24. Notices will be sent home that afternoon with the replacement cost if the book cannot be found. Since some books are no longer in print, we would much rather have the book than the payment. Thank you so much for your help in maintaining a quality collection of reading material for our Red Foxes.  

GENTLY USED BOOK SALE
We will once again offer gently loved books at bargain prices during our annual Gently Used Book Sale. The sale will begin on Tuesday, May 28, and continue through Friday, May 31. Paperback books will cost $.50 and hardcover books will be $1.00. This is a wonderful way to get books for summer reading at an affordable cost. If you would like to donate books that are in good condition for the sale, you may send them to the media center at any time.

YEARBOOKS
We still have some yearbooks available for purchase. They may be ordered online using the link and access code below, or you may send payment to our office. The cost is $28.00 and checks should be made payable to Leonard’s.

BUGZ!
Our second grade students did an amazing job in their BUGZ program! Thanks to our music teacher, Mrs. Hull, for her creative vision and for always bringing out the best in our students. A round of applause also to Mr. Ashby, who willingly shared his artistic talent to design the beautiful backdrop. To see a recording of the program, click on the following link:
