Read Across America - Seuss on the Loose

March 2nd is Read Across America Day,

in honor and memory of Dr. Seuss!

You're never too old, too wacky, too wild,

To pick up a book and read with a child.

You're never too busy, too cool, or too hot,

To pick up a book and share what you've got.

In schools and communities,

Let's gather around,

Let's pick up a book,

Let's pass it around.

There are kids all around you,

Kids who will need

Someone to hug,

Someone to read.

Come join us March 2nd

Your own special way

And make this America's

Read to Kids Day.

Global Connections! Madrid, Spain

Global Connections!

Madrid, Spain

December’s Hot Topic is

“Giving Back”

Caring is Sharing

December is the month when we think about the holidays, family, and traditions passed down from generation to generation.

We reflect on our lives; the blessings and challenges.

love, caring, and sharing.

We have been BLESSED and INSPIRED by the grant we received from AASL which has richly added to our multicultural collection of library books. Each month we are reaching out to students, our KMS community and our local community sharing books, conversation, and activities.

This month we are making global connections, as Mrs. Beckham travels to Madrid, Spain with care packages for children in the public library,

Municipal Public Library Dámaso Alonso in Madrid

Students have decorated gift bags, written letters, made ornament and small gifts to give to students visiting the library this holiday season as a way to give back to our global community!
