Books we read
this summer!
This is a school of readers. That was proven once again as I sat the kids down and put together our annual "Books We Read This Summer."
Hardly anyone, students or staff, had any trouble coming up with a book to put on the poster. What's more, most students (not so much the staff) could name the authors of the books.
