There’s “snow” place like the library! Please join us for “stories in the snow” at MPA’s annual book festival on Monday, December 8-Friday, December 12, in the Martin Lenz Harrison Library!
To help us celebrate the long-standing Book Festival tradition, the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to build your child’s home library with new books they’ll dive into again and again. Learn more by clicking here!
In order to make this event a success, we need volunteers to staff the browsing times for each of the grades, various times during the week when it is open for perusing & purchasing, and during some special after school events.
