- FROM THE LIBRARY:
- Summit’s First Ever Book Madness bracket is over. The winning book was WONDER! 28 students correctly guessed that Wonder would win it all, so I drew 2 prize winners. Audrey Allen and Luke McCammon can come to the library some time this week to pick a prize. Thank you to everyone that voted!
- As we approach the end of the year, the library is going to start limiting checkouts to 2-3 books per student at a time for the month of April. You can always stop in to exchange books.
