Spring into a Great Book!
It's that time of year!
This one was the all around winner.
It was made by two high school students.
This one won the people's choice. It was made
by an elementary student at Regency.
This one was just one of
my favorites. It was made by an adult.

Drop Everything and Read!
What is D.E.A.R.?
D.E.A.R. stands for “Drop Everything and Read,” a national month-long celebration of reading designed to remind folks of all ages to make reading a priority activity in their lives. Because, what’s more fun(damental) than reading, really?

ALWAYS have a book at the ready!
This is how we build readers! Teach by example. It's fun for EVERYONE!
Missing Books, End of the Year, and Summer Reading
The last day for checking out new library books will be May 17, and all library books should be returned no later than May 23 (earlier for as many books as possible). We'd always rather students are keeping their accounts current ... reading and returning books in a timely manner for new titles! If you aren't seeing new library books regularly please check backpacks for notices with the titles listed. If you're not sure email Ms. Oliverson at aolive@neisd.net. Look for summer reading program materials (SAPL and B&N are two examples ... read and earn FREE BOOKS! Plus the public library puts on fun free summer programs!) around the last week in May.
SIx Flags Six Hour Reading tickets usually come around the first week in May.
