TEAMS USA AND RENAISSANCE BOOK RETURN REQUEST If you borrowed a book from the 7/8 teams (Touching Spirit Bear or another title), we are hoping to retrieve them so they are available for next year's readers. If you are able to drop them by the school, we encourage you to do so. Thank you, and keep reading!

RETURNING LIBRARY BOOKS Since the in-school part of the year ended somewhat abruptly, we realize that students may still have library materials that they no longer need or have finished reading. If you wish to return them, we urge you to drop them by the school.
