Students are reminded that they should not be putting pencils in the lock mechanism of their locker. We understand that it makes it easier to open without the combination, but it damages the locker and it also creates a situation where items can be stolen from a locker. Students will be charged the cost of damage to locker mechanisms.

Just a reminder that MSW is a member of the MackinVIA Connected Library Consortium. This allows our students to access hundreds of eBooks and audiobooks from anywhere they have internet access.

The MackinVIA app can be downloaded on phones and tablets, or you can use the website on any desktop computer/laptop/Chromebook (www.mackinvia.com). Students simply login using their BASD username and password.

An entire new year’s worth of titles were added to MackinVIA last week. This brings us to 1,412 total ebooks and 831 audiobooks.

Email Mrs. Palopoli (spalopoli@boyertownasd.org) if you have any questions.
