Our theme this year is "Hello Reader". Our motto is "Reading to know. Reading to Grow." You will find that much of what we offer this year focuses on putting the right book with the right reader, promoting literacy, allowing opportunities for students to express themselves through creativity and clubs, and we are are all about supporting our staff and students efforts in instruction and learning.
You won’t want to miss out on the opportunities that we have for you in the library this year. Grab a seat, a book, magazine, your favorite device, and plug in to literacy because, #Zebrasread23 #helloreader !!
