The Bigelow Library is a vibrant and exciting learning commons. Students visit daily to find a good book to read. Maintaining a library collection of both fiction and nonfiction books to meet the reading interest of our students is always a priority.  The Buy a Book Fund  is a wonderful way to meet this demand so that the library can maintain its vibrancy.

Thank you to all parents and families who have donated to The Buy a Book Fund  in the past.   Your generosity is deeply appreciated.

Thank you to everyone who bought magazines and supported the 8th grade.  The money raised will help provide scholarships for the 8th grade trips to NYC and Quebec City.

It is not too late to help.  You can still purchase magazines and support the 8th grade by ordering your magazines on line at www.gaschoolstore.com School ID # 2637080.
