WHAT BOOKS DO YOU WANT FOR THE MEDIA CENTER?
USE THE FOLLOWING SITE TO POST A REQUEST:
Hi Students!
I have created a Wallwisher wall. It is a place you can post messages about what books or audio books you want me to buy. Post a sticky with title and author of the book and your first name and reading teacher. I'll contact your reading teacher when the book is ready. Be patient it takes a while to buy and process it. Another option is to ask us to borrow it from another school or you can check with CCLIB and reserve the book through them if they have it.
Citrus County Library-- you will need a library card. It's free! Go see what they have.
