What's Happening at Log...Virtually
June 12th will be our last official day for collecting work and grades, as the drop off/pick up days at school for items begins on Monday, June 15th. If you have not done so already, please check the morning eAlerts that are sent from Log College each day, which outline the procedures, and the individual dates/times assigned for each student.
We thank you for your patience throughout this process over the last few months. The faculty and staff truly feel fortunate to work with such a wonderful community of students and families!
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the school.
Be well,
Mr. Golderer and Mr. Drago

Gone
I would recommend this book because it tells you how you may have things planned out for the future but you have to be prepared for things to change and not go the way you want them to. This book shows how you can change a bad situation and make it something good. There is not a dull part in the book. There is always something new happening that was caused by the past. Therefore, I would recommend this book Gone.

Invasive
I would recommend Invasive to anyone who likes an exciting, thrilling story . Even though it is a fiction book, it is based largely on science, which makes it a very interesting read. In addition, it is led by a strong exciting antagonist. The book is about hypnotized killer ants that attack society. Overall the book is very entertaining and chillingly eerie. I would recommend it to anyone who loves a faced paced and eerie read.

A Message From Our Librarian
Dear Families and Students:
I hope all is well with you and your loved ones, and I miss seeing you in the library. Before school closed on March 13th, we had close to 1,000 books on loan. That's fabulous, because it shows that we are a community of readers. Of course, we do need to collect those items so the love of the story can be shared with someone else.
The Centennial School District (CSD) Food Bank and Food Truck are accepting CSD library book collections per this schedule:
McDonald ES Food Bank - Mondays and Thursdays - 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM.
Klinger MS Food Bank - Schedule varies and is posted in the CSD Alerts.
Food Truck - Mondays and Thursdays.
Books can be returned with the Chromebook at the end of the school year.
So far, about 100 books have been returned at the lunch truck and food bank locations. That's terrific! If you return a book to the CSD collection points, please know that you will continue to receive overdue notices for a few weeks, even a month. The books will be held in sealed containers, until the librarians are able to come to school and scan the books. I appreciate your patience with that.
I am so sorry that it isn’t possible to open the library right now. If I could, I would drop off new books at your house. Until we open, visit the Library folder in Classlink. There are links to online material, including the eBooks on Destiny Quest. If you have access to a Bucks County Library System (BCLS) or any PA public library, the Libby Overdrive app has been added to the Google Play Store, so BCLS members can access tens of thousands of eBooks using the public library username and password. Currently, the BCLS is offering a promotion for eAccess accounts. Students and families can establish eLibrary accounts online for the ontime cost of $1.00.
Flashback Friday!
