There are two big topics this week. The first is that on Wednesday, June 1, the children's librarians from the Manhattan Beach branch of the Los Angeles County Public Library (Michael Mackavoy and Regina Ochoa) will be on campus presenting assemblies and meeting with interested families and students. Students in TK, K, 1, 2, and 3 will see an assembly during the day; any student accompanied by his or her adult guardian is invited to drop by our school library between 1:30 and 2:00 to visit with one of the librarians--this is a good option for students in grades 4 and 5. The public library's summer reading program has its kickoff event on Wednesday, June 22. A flyer with details about this event as well as other summer reading performances is below--just click on it to view it or print it.
The other big news is that the school year is almost over! The very last day to check out books from the Pennekamp library this year is Friday, June 3. All books are due no later than Friday, June 10. Next week will be the last week of class visits to the library. Parents, please help your students find and return everything from our library--and please return materials borrowed in your own name. District policy requires that I put a hold on the report card of any student who has materials still checked out on the last day of school; the same goes for materials checked out by a parent--I have to hold the library card of that parent's son or daughter. If a book has been lost or damaged beyond repair, please make payment for it in exact change or a check payable to MBUSD. The sooner we can clear this all up, the better! Thanks very much for supporting the library by returning your materials promptly.
Speaking of thanks, I am very grateful for my year-end gift of scrip! I am very touched by your appreciation and generosity. Thank you so much!
Next week, June 9, is the last meeting of the 5th-grade book club. We will be discussing The Wild Robot, by Peter Brown.
