ABS Library News
Next week, all K-5 library classes will visit the Mary L Blood Library to meet Mrs. Frederick and hear about summer reading opportunities at that library. Let's keep our students reading!
On May 30, all library books will be due! Please help your students find and return their library books. I will send an email to let you know which library books your child has out. If you do not receive an email from me, it's because I do not have your address. Please check with your child's teacher, or email me for those book titles. Thank you for your help in getting all library books back to ABS.
6th Grade will be holding a plant sale to help raise funds for their 6th grade class trip. They will have vegetable plants as well as house plants. Their sale will be held outside on the playground on Friday after school, May 24th in time for Memorial Day weekend planting!
