On Your Mark, Get Set, Read is the theme for this year’s Summer Reading Program which begins June 14 and ends July 21. The elementary library will be open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00-12:00 p.m. with a story time feature at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Students who read 100 minutes per week can bring in proof of their minutes, making them eligible for reading incentive prizes and books. Transporation will be provided for students who live in the Bradshaw area. At the end of the school year, information packets will be sent home with the students. Parents of preschoolers may pick up the packets at the office or when they first attend.
Volunteers are needed to read, tell, or dramatize a story for the children during the story hour. Stories need not follow the summer library theme but may be on any book or topic appropriate for children. Especially needed are readers who want to share their own writing or life experiences involving stories.
If you would like to get involved in reading to children during the Summer Library Program, please call the school office at 402-723-4434.
