Dear Parents/Guardians,
I wanted to say great job on the Spring Break reading challenge. We had so many people participate and lots of minutes reading which means so many growing brains! I hope you all had fun with that and thank you for participating.
Speaking of reading, we are famous! Ms. Jenna’s book walk project has been featured by the Colorado Department of Education in celebration of School Library Month! Check out the Facebook and LinkedIn posts! We are so lucky to have such an amazing librarian who does the coolest things for our students!
