Summer Reading at Local Libraries

The Walnut Grove and Carthage Libraries have agreed to partner with SLE again this summer. Students can read books and take Accelerated Reader tests at either of these two great places. Mrs. Tate, SLE second grade teacher, has even placed a reading list at each library. Students from any grade can find recommended books to read using this list. The library and the school will recognize students and their work at the end of the summer.

In addition, the local libraries have summer reading programs planned. Please take advantage of these programs, and help your children continue to develop their reading skills. Below are schedules of the summer's events:
