**Please check ParentSquare daily for information from me, our school or school district.**

Take-Home Books

Each week, your child will bring several books home for you to read together. Please read the books with your child, write the books on the reading log and return the books inside the bag by Friday. Reading to your child is very important. Your child will enjoy it and it will encourage him/her to want to become a reader! When reading log is completed, please take out and place in front pocket of binder. A new log will be placed in binder and your child will go to the treat box!!
