White Oak Middle School library is off to a fantastic start! For the first week of school, we worked our tails off trying to get everyone’s Chromebooks ready. Everyone was happy with their new (or old) Chromebooks, and new red computer cases. Once we finished that, all the library aides were trained by Mrs. Kelley, and we decided it was time to open the library for business. We kicked off the 2020-2021 school year with a book about farts, which had a great message to it in the end. We learned that everyone, even a fart, will find real friends who love them for who they truly are. After that ridiculous (in a good way) read aloud, people were eager to get out of their seats and check out the books. They made some great selections! We made sure everyone was being safe, so we squirted our hands with hand sanitizer, wore our masks, and sprayed everything down with sanitizer for the next class. We’re all looking forward to having a great year in the library!
