The library handed out over a thousand books at this years end of year book giveaway! These are books that students can keep for summer reading, to encourage them to think of themselves as readers and for the simple fun of owning books. Here are some of the book stacks that students walked out with! These books are purchased by Mrs. Cotten, Mrs. Kemp, and donations of gently used books.

Sixth grade has been learning a little about gardening in the library! Through our Farm-to-School grant, we were able to purchase raised beds for the school and sixth grade learned about plants, planned a garden, started seeds, and helped plant the beds. With the help of ABCD Hardware in Brushton, we got some dirt for our raised beds, as well as seeds and seed starting kits. We harvested our radish recently, as well as tried salad greens, arugula, and broccoli. Not everyone was a fan of all of those things, but we are all pretty proud that we grew them!
