*Library- Last week was the last week to check out books so we have time to collect them all before the end of the year. This week Mrs. Chaddock will read to the kiddos and the last day of library will be Tuesday, May 17. Mrs. Chaddock is working diligently at compiling lists of what each student needs to return at the end of the year and will send those emails out soon. If your child is returning next year, you may complete the following Google form to check out items for the summer.
