Library

Our library has over 15,000 books for students to check out and read.  Mrs. Valiquette reads some of them to us and lets us check them out to read by ourselves.  Older students can check out two books, one of them has to be at their reading level.  After reading a book students can take an AR test to check how well we remember.  Each book has a different number of possible points depending on level, length, difficulty and accuracy in completing the test.

FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY
The Library appreciates our many volunteers who come in and donate their time to read with the children on a weekly basis. The children and the volunteers both enjoy a new friendship and good books together.

THIRD QUARTER INCENTIVES
In the third quarter each child who reads the required hours or earns the required points, will receive a free day pass to Silverwood. This is a big incentive to increase the amount of reading. The Library's circulation has over 8,000 accelerated reader books.  

Students who log their reading on the Reading is the Ticket form need to read 600 minutes with a parent signature for each session. 

Students who want to read for AR points need to increase their quarterly AR points to:
5th grader -- 40 points
4th grader -- 35 points
3rd grader -- 30 points
2nd grader -- 25 points

All points and ticket forms must be turned in by March 21st
