Extra Library Helpers Needed
The end of the school year is so close! Last week was the last for library checkouts so there will be LOTS of books coming in. Our wonderful librarians could use some additional help with re-shelving books and reading the shelves to make sure books are in order. If you are interested in helping, please contact Debbie at 708-263-7646 or deb.kummer@sbcglobal.net.
