The Shark Tells

Week of October 7, 2024

Reader's Reef

This re-imagined section of The Shark Tells will highlight some of our lesser known "holidays" and pair them with a related book from the SJM Library Learning Commons.

Forgiveness & Happiness Day (10/7)

Mai has been contemplating revenge on Zach ever since he humiliated her, but Mai has noticed a change in Zach, forcing her to decide if she can forgive him.

World Dyslexia Day (10/8)

Ally's greatest fear is that everyone will find out she is as dumb as they think she is because she still doesn't know how to read

Stop Bullying Day (10/9)

Suffering from amnesia, Chase learns who he was through the eyes of other students and isn't sure he likes the person being revealed.

Congratulations to Ciena Farrell for placing in three events at this weekend's regional swim meet. Ciena will compete as a member of the SJH Varsity Swim Team in the state meet next week.
