Congratulations!
Congratulations to our For the Love of Reading Contest winners! As a school, we had 298 students earn 7 virtual badges to complete the contest and everyone participating logged over 310,000 minutes of reading! Nate, Morgan, Emalie, Nick and Maeve were the lucky winners of our book fair gift cards!
Student Success Cards
Don't forget that FCPL has great resources that are FREE to all FCPS students. Email Mrs. Siderius for more information about the Student Success card or read about it online at https://www.fcpl.org/studentsuccess.
Spring Book Fair
The Spring Book Fair will be in the media center from March 23rd-27th. Find out more information at https://education.fcps.org/nmes/bookfair.
Standing Desk
Students asked and we listened! Our intermediate students wanted a standing desk, so the FCPS Woodshop built them a custom counter in a nook of the media center. Thanks to them for this awesome addition!
New Shelves
Check out our new door shelves to entice readers as they are entering the media center! We love being able to display books everywhere!
What's next?
More changes to come! Mrs. Siderius is reading feedback from a student survey to see what other options we should offer for flexible seating and displays in the media center!
