EMES Summer Reading

Dear EMES Families,
 Summer is right around the corner! We are pleased to announce the return of the summer reading program for EMES students. EMES students (who will be entering K through 6th grade next year) will be allowed and encouraged to check out up to five books from the EMES library for summer reading.

 Here’s the plan:

 1. All library materials borrowed during the school year need to be back in the library before anything is checked out for the summer.
 2. Students will pick out three books from our library that they want to take home for the summer. Mrs. Fitch and Arlyn will help add two surprise books for each student. This year surprise books will also be drawn from recommendations that EMES students make for younger student readers.
3. Prior to checking out summer reading, students will need a parent/guardian signature on the summer reading form agreeing to pay the replacement cost of lost or damaged materials.
 4. Books and bookbags need to be returned on the first day of school.
 5. Bookbags will include a summer reading log, information about reading incentive programs from other organizations in VT, and additional information about library and reading resources for your family.
 6. Please send in photos of your EMES readers in action this summer.

 We hope you have a summer full of fun, sunshine, and good books!

 Arlyn Bruccoli & Jennifer Fitch
