- VOCS LIBRARY BOOKS- We are glad that so many students are checking out books from our VOCS library. If your student wants to check out a book, please use the clip board that is located on top of the library shelf. Books do need to be returned within a 3-4 week time.
- READING LOGS- Please have your child read everyday and fill out the weekly reading log. Each time they turn in a log, they get to put their name in a drawing. The more they read, the more chances they have to win!
