Here are some library reminders for our elementary students! It can be hard to keep track of what day is what special, so here's a quick post you can screenshot in case you're not sure when your student's library book is due. Students can always renew a book but they need to bring their library books to library special each week. Thanks for helping us keep the libraries going!


Some great math instruction this morning at DGES!
