One of the coolest things to happen to me in my career is getting a grant from the Minden Schools Foundation! All of the juniors this year can order a book for their personal libraries, and some of the books have arrived! It has been so interesting to see the books they're choosing; it's been a wild variety--a variety that reflects their interests and personalities!!! My greatest hope is that students find material to read that makes them excited about reading--whether it's a classic novel, a biography, a thriller, or a car manual--and that they become lifelong readers. Books are just words on pages until a reader breathes life into those words by reading, forming a bridge between the author and the reader. I appreciate everyone who donated to the foundation, making this grant possible, and I am so grateful that my grant application was chosen. Go Whippets!!!

A big thank you to Nielsen's U-Pick Pumpkin Patch for welcoming all of our students to their patch.  Each student gets to pick out a pumpkin and is given a goody bag from Nielsens.  It's become a fall tradition our students love!
