Hello Primrose parents!!!

This month, we have many Fun Facts to share with you. One Fun Fact is that kindergartners have made some wonderful shelf signs for the Everyone section in our Library!! Another Fun Fact is students have been improving on taking care of our Library. Students have been sharing their ideas in the idea wall. For example, a student wrote: "Add more Mr. Lemoncello’s Library books."


Thanks for reading!! Have a nice week!!!

It is about a boy who starts a book club and calls it the Losers Club so not a lot of people would join. Another book you might want to read is The Youngest Marcher by Cynthia Levinson.
