AR BookFinder
Now, anyone can search for AR books online for free! That means parents, guardians, and students can conduct book searches by author, readability level, point value, and topic. Then, they can place the titles in their online AR BookBag, print it, and take it to their bookstore or library.

AR BookFinder also provides accessibility to the book lists generated by classroom teachers using AR BookGuide. The book lists contain titles of books that teachers assign or recommend for students to read.

Scholastic Book Fair
 

The Scholastic Book Fair is held annually at our school.  The fair is held in the Father Henry Hall and is usually open Monday through Friday during a week in November.  A Family Event that combines the Book Fair with a Curriculum Exhibit that showcases our students’ class work is held that same Monday. 
 

The Book Fair allows families to shop early for Christmas while at the same time supporting our school library.  All proceeds go directly to purchasing new library books and materials.
