The library received 4 boxes of donated books this summer from a very generous donor! Our librarian created a "free book tree" for kids. Kids can choose a book from the tree to keep as their own. A fun way to promote reading!

Breaking ground for our new storage facility and weight room expansion. Approximately 1600 square feet will be added for school storage and 400 square feet added to our weight room. This will allow direct supervision from the gym to weight room. A definite need for the safety of our students and staff!
