It's Wednesday! What's happening in the AME Library?

 Our Second Annual AME Read-Aloud Marathon began yesterday!


We have read-alouds at the top of every hour, 8a through 2p, via Google Meet.  Yesterday's guest readers were a freshman from Westwood High School, the Westwood librarians, and staff members--Ms Brown, Ms Foster (the IB coordinator), and Ms Margocs.  Today we are hosting two school board members--Ms Weir and Ms Vessa, as well as more staff members.  Several classes are joining us each hour to hear great stories.

The big event today is our book bag distribution!
EVERY scholar on our campus is getting a book, scented bookmark, and RROCKREADS pencil.  This is possible due to the generosity of
  • Our RRISD Library Services Department
  • Donations to our AME Library eWallet during Book Fair
  • Book Fair proceeds
  • PJ Hoover, a local author
  • Parent Support Services
  • Our wonderful AME PTA--especially the George and Dancer families
Our goal is to promote the love of learning and literacy--building home libraries is a great place to start!

Dillo Readers, enjoy your new books.  Have a safe, happy, and healthy Winter Break!  We'll see you in the library in 2022.
