Comics Plus is a subscription service that the library pays for to provide access to more graphic novels and manga. The great part of this database is that new resources are added frequently and there are no checkouts or due dates. Every resource is able to be opened by multiple users so a whole class can use the same book if teachers want to use it for a lesson. Friends can both read the same book at the same time!

There are ALL kinds of books, so go to your portal and click on the icon shown above to check it out!

Starting Monday, December 5th, come check out a book and guess how many Book Worms are in the jar! I will announce winners in the January Smore. Winners will get to come get a prize!

7th Grade classes will be coming for their lesson on the new catalog and challenges that 6th and 8th already had.

6th grade will be doing a poetry coding activity for Hour of Code week!

8th grade will be doing a holiday station activity for a bit of fun before break.

Magnet 7th graders will be visiting for a Hour of Code day while Cyber Patriots compete.

Holiday books will be featured in the book display. I've pulled fiction and non-fiction books about Christmas, Kwanzaa, and Hanukkah. Come check them out!
