Kimball HS Library has a Twitter account! Woo! Hoping to keep you updated on the happenings here in our little part of the book world. I'd like to post more about our events, volunteering, class activity of the past couple of years! It's been a little difficult to post while being the sole librarian since Ms. York's illness and passing a few years ago. Missing you, LSY! Getting an opportunity to add a little to the blog today thanks to Ms. Magee. Thank you!!
If you get a chance, help us out in the next entry so we can be entered in the DonorsChoose.org raffle and prize giveaway.
I'd really like to get some authors here since we have so many enthusiastic readers! They are great kids and they really appreciate the opportunities we can provide. Also, a portable stage for library events which we could use outside on those wonderful warm days we have so often (just not today). The thought of having some exciting book events right outside really thrills me!
Thanks for your help!

Donor Choose - Help Me Out on a Book Club or Kimball HS Library Project - We have some real Book and Magazine Lovers here!!
Subject: My students need your help!
Hi Friends,
This school year, I want to make sure my students have the materials they need to succeed. So I've created a classroom project request on a 501(c)3 charity website called DonorsChoose.org.
November is the Tell-A-Friend Challenge, so I am writing in hopes of any donations for my students! For this month only, your donation of $25 or more to my Teacher Page will not only help fund my projects, but will also earn my classroom a raffle entry to win additional resources and supplies. You can help my students twice with one tax-deductible donation, and you'll hear back from our class about your impact on our learning!
To learn more or donate, visit my Teacher Page at http://www.donorschoose.org/we-teach/522994
Please feel free to send me any questions you may have, and know that my students and I greatly appreciate your support.
