NO PROGRAM: Summer Reading Prep Period

This Summer Reading Prep Period provides librarians with time to prepare materials and finalize plans for the upcoming Summer Reading Program while offering students a welcoming space to stay engaged. During this time, students are encouraged to utilize the upper level of the library to read, explore books, and participate in quiet, independent activities. This transition period supports both program preparation and continued student engagement in a safe, structured environment.

The Thursday After School Program is for students currently enrolled in grades 4th - 6th. The program runs on Thursdays from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. unless otherwise announced. Planned activities are subject to change. Students must be enrolled online or in person at the Library by a parent or guardian to attend. Students are expected to follow program expectations of behavior. Parents and/or Guardians are responsible for ensuring that students understand and follow the program expectations of behavior.
