Family Movie Night!

As long as school doesn't begin yet, let's continue to do special science activities on Tuesday nights! This coming Tuesday, August 12th, Mrs. Simard will be showing a movie in the big room downstairs. The name of the film is "Robots" and it's rated PG - here's the link to Common Sense Media if parents want to read more about why it earned that rating. The site also says the movie is full of positive messages about following your dreams! 

The movie will begin at 6:15 and should end at 7:45. Come to the library - and bring your family!
