I am looking for volunteers! Do you like to read? Do you like Christmas? Do you like kids? We are looking for parent volunteers to guest read to classes on Thursday, Dec. 21 for a special celebration of JOLABOKAFLOD- the Icelandic tradition of ‘flooding’ with books on Christmas Eve! We will be reading in different ways and enjoying hot chocolate and pajamas. Please email Mrs. B. if you can help out- L.Baillargeon@hh-cs.org.

Just a reminder to everyone that the Accelerated Reader deadline is coming up on Thursday November 16! At that point students should be done their reading for the term and are just finishing up the AR tests. Accelerated Reader not only gets our students to read more, but our program also promotes goal-setting and time management. Keep reading, HHCS!

The Book Character Potato contest in the library was back this year, after having it two years ago.  I was even MORE impressed with the students’ creativity and hard work this time around! How amazing to see all the adorable book characters keeping our library cheery and cozy! We had entries such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Charlotte’s Web, Aslan, The Cat in the Cat, a Minion, Harry Potter, The Couch Potato, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, The Pigeon, The Hockey Sweater, Pinocchio, Sherlock Holmes, Monsters Inc, The Little Prince, Elephant and Piggie, Wordy Birdy, The Good Egg, and more. Have a look!
