Fourth and Fifth Grade Amazing Reading Challenge!

The Amazing Reading Challenge (ARC) is a reading contest available for 4th and 5th grade students.  Our challenge has begun for the year! We have 125 students participating in 25 teams that will compete to determine who will go on to face off with teams at the regional level. Our school competitions will begin in late January or early February.  For now, participants should just read, read, read!  Below is this year's great selection of ARC books.

 

Information About Our Library Program

 

  • Students attend library class once each week.
  • The number of books students check out each week is dependent on their grade level (K: 1 book, First: 2 books, Second: 2 books, Third: 3 books, 2/3 Quest: 3 books, Fourth: 4 books, Fifth: 4 books, 4/5 Quest: 4 books)
  • Students keep their books for 2 weeks before the books are considered overdue
  • If you think you have lost a library book, just keep looking for it!  Books are almost never lost.  They have just taken a field trip to somewhere like under a bed.  Eventually, if you really cannot find the book, if you choose, you can send a replacement copy into the library. Replacement copies can be purchased from any bookseller.  They do not need to be special library copies. 

Library Hours

The library is open to students and parents for 15 minutes before and after school most days of the week.  The schedule is as follows:

  • Monday: 9:05 - 9:20 and 3:50-4:05
