Welcome!
The library is located right in the heart of our school. You're welcome to come in if the lights are on! Students and
their families are invited to enjoy reading, use the computers, or access any of our resources.
All K-8 classrooms visit the library once every two weeks to check out books. Books circulate for two weeks and may be renewed. Students can also put a hold on a book they are excited to read. There is no charge for overdue books, but it is school policy that the
library is reimbursed for lost or damaged books. This can be done easily on SchoolPay.
I'm excited about all the amazing opportunities we have to nurture our school's culture or literacy. This year, the K-3 students will be able to vote for the Washington Children's Choice Picture Book Award. The 4/5 students will participate in the Global Reading Challenge for the second year. Our middle school students are playing Book Bingo and will have the opportunity to join book clubs throughout the school year.
Middle school students can also elect to serve as library teaching assistants or join the Tech Team (TT). TT helps maintain our technology resources and these leaders are available to help teachers with projects that include technology.

Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are an important part of a vibrant library. Thank you to the parents who have volunteered to keep our library open for students before school. There are so many ways to help in the library, if you would like to volunteer, stop by and say hi, or email me at alpendley@seattleschools.org.
