IMPORTANT NOTE:  Please have the book titles read by the date outlined on our calendar.  We will have some copies available through the school library for lending out, but you may need to acquire a copy from the local public library. Please remember to read it quickly because others will be waiting for it too. It’s a great idea to take notes and write sample questions to bring with you to each meeting.
