MRS. BINKER'S BOOK BEAT
Our Library is a very busy place!

We spent the fall celebrating all the holidays with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas stories.

General Mills Boxtops Contest

Our Classroom Contest has begun! The homeroom that turns in the most Boxtops by February 1st will win a pizza luncheon and a free dress down day of their teacher's choice. In addition, the teacher of the winning homeroom will receive one free book of her choice from our March Book Fair. Remember, each boxtop is worth $0.10 and all proceeds benefit your SJS Library.

Preschool Storytime
Our 2009-2010 Storytime membership is growing! We now have 18 pre-kindergarten age children attending our monthly program to enjoy stories and activities in the SJS libray. Our next meeting is on Wednesday, January 6th at 1:45pm. Any child entering kindergarten in the fall of 2010 is welcome to join us. Please call the school at 766-2564, or email Mrs. Binker to register for this year. FYI If there is a snow delay, we will have storytime unless you are notified otherwise. If school is closed or we have an early dismissal due to weather, storytime will be cancelled.
