Thank you!
We are also grateful to all of the staff members who dropped off books to help us expand our picture book collection!
Finally, we appreciate your support in helping grow our reading culture at Schroeder. Every time you allow students to choose their books, provide D.E.A.R. time, show students how to access ebooks, write kids a pass to browse books, or talk to them about what you are reading, you contribute to their identity as readers. Our circulation of books and ebooks is the highest it has been in three years, and we know that our whole Schroeder family has played a role.
