Everybody Reads Starts Friday (3/1)!
The 3rd annual Everybody Reads campaign officially kicks off this Friday (3/1)! Everybody Reads is a collaborative initiative with Siouxland Libraries intended to encourage reading throughout our schools and the broader community. We'll be tracking how many books we read from March 1-22nd, and for every book read a raindrop will be added to the walls at our schools and libraries. If we hit our goal of 300,000 books read, we are able to make a donation to our friends at REACH Literacy. Our theme for 2024 is "Rain or Shine: Everybody Reads!". Let's get ready to see raindrops all over our schools as we "make a splash" with reading!

Tomorrow, February 2nd, is Groundhog Day!
A day where we ask our famous Punxsutawney Phil from Pennsylvania, if we are going to have six more weeks of winter, or have spring come early!
Back in the 1700s, German settlers who came to Pennsylvania brought their seasonal superstitions with them! They say when Phill sees his shadow, he gets scared and runs back into his home. But if he doesn't see his shadow, well, that just means warmer temperatures on the way!
If you would like to witness this historic day, you can go to this website for a live stream at Gobbler's Knob!
