Don't forget to check the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Remember to talk as a family about your home emergency plan. Do you know where to meet your family if you have to leave your house because of a fire?

Your Most Important School Supply

Every student needs to have a Chicago Public Library Card. Students will be taught how to access and utilize the resources on the Chicago Public Library website. If you do not have a CPL card, visit our local branch with a parent or guardian to apply.

  Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month      

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15th to October 15th.  It is a celebration of the culture and traditions of Americans with roots to Spain, Mexico and the Spanish-speaking nations of Central America, South America and the Caribbean.

Test your knowledge of Latino History by taking this short quiz and brush up on your Spanish. Visit this great Scholastic site and learn more about Hispanic Heritage.

Thank You Chicago Blackhawks! 

We would like to thank the Chicago Blackhawks' organization for their allocation of funding to our library media center. Due to this generous contribution, we were able to purchase $5000 in Sports and Fitness books. The majority of these books are found in the 700 section of our library.

Please participate in our poll, located under the left navigation menu, to vote on what we will call this updated section of our library. We have narrowed the choices to "Blackhawks' Book Nook", "Blackhawks' Center Ice", or "Blackhawks' Nest". We greatly appreciate the Chicago Blackhawks Organizations' generosity.
