Hello again, CHESS friends! The library blog has been quiet over the past couple of months, but the library itself has been bustling with activity. I've enjoyed visiting with students of all ages, as they discuss upcoming literature projects (don't worry, high schoolers, Romeo and Juliet can actually be a pretty fun read!), discover new stories, and return to old favorites. Our collection has also been steadily growing (check out our New Books page to see the latest additions)!

Next week, we'll be celebrating the library with Library Week! (Yes, it was originally scheduled for this past week - we apologize for any confusion!) We'll be featuring great stories with a different theme each day, offering daily prize drawings for both Upper and Lower School students, and hosting a Stuffed Animal Sleepover on Wednesday. (see details below!) A used book sale will also be out, with books available for $0.50-$1.00.

Come celebrate all that's good about books and the CHESS library with us!

*Stuffed Animal Sleepover - bring your favorite stuffed animal for an overnight at the library! The official drop off date is anytime Wednesday, February 6, but students who do not attend electives that day may drop off their animals with Mrs. Meester Monday or Tuesday. Come pick your friends back up on Thursday (special permission may be granted for the following Monday), and find out what kind of fun they had on their library adventure!*
