A Note About Responsible Reading
In a library that serves students ranging in ages from eleven to fourteen, a wide variety of materials is needed. What is interesting and appropriate for eighth graders may not be interesting or appropriate for sixth graders and vice versa. If you check out a book that makes you or your parents uncomfortable, please return it and choose another book. Always feel free to contact us if you have questions or comments. |
A Message from Mrs. Ruebke
April 1
Dear MMS students,
I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. I miss seeing you in the library, talking about books and making recommendations! During this time away from school, utilize some great free resources for online books. I have provided a link below with some suggestions. Please do not worry about returning library books at this time. Read them, keep them in a secure place, and we will collect them when it is safe to do so.
I would love to hear what you have been reading! Let me know by responding on the Padlet below.
I miss you! Please reach out to me if you have any questions - aruebke@rockingham.k12.va.us
