Read for the World Record...New Record!

This summer we once again, participated in Scholastic's Read for the World Record! reading challenge! Once again we made it to the TOP 20 in the WORLD! We also placed FIRST in the state of Utah! Amazing job Otters!!

Our school goal was to read 1,000,000 minutes over the summer - not only did we make our goal, we surpassed it! We read 1,495,565 minutes! This year was more difficult than last year... the winning school read over 6,000,000 minutes! Next year we will really have to step it up, but for right now we are celebrating!

Congratulations Otters!!
New record: 176,438,473 minutes world wide

Our Library Dragon


Such a fun story! Do we have a dragon in our library? 

I hope not! My job is not to "guard the books," but to teach YOU to guard the books while you have them checked out. To enjoy them AND keep them safe. Media Center manner #3, Be Responsible, right? Be responsible with the library books you have checked out.  Nope, no dragon here in OUR library... =)
