Abilene ISD Libraries

200 Hour Beanstack Challenge begins in 3 days!!! Happy summer reading!

No pictures because we don't want to spoil the surprise, but we did it! We whittled 300 books down to 20 for our Mockingbird list.

Shhhh! The librarians and associates are reading.

Today was day one of our Mockingbird Selection Day. Our task is to whittle down over 300 picture books published this year down to 20 of our favorites for K-2 students. We still have a ways to go tomorrow! Wish us luck.

Out with old and in with the new! We're not talking about the librarian, silly! We're talking about the carpet!! We are so excited about the improvements being made at the Craig MS library!

Congratulations to these Taylor Trojans teachers! They logged over 200 hours in Beanstack! Wellborn, Bridges, and Pruitt, we're proud of you!!

Martinez teacher Mary Haney logged over 200 hours of reading on Beanstack this year! We know she will love having more time to read next year in retirement. Congratulations!

Hip! Hip! Hooray! Dyess teachers received recognition today for logging 200 hours of reading in Beanstack for this school year! Congratulations Warner, Peppin, Patterson, Saucedo, Findley, Monroy, and Abell.

New school year logging starts June 1.

Tuesday the Elementary Librarians hosted the Beanstack Bash for all the students who logged 200 or more hours of reading this school year. ACU was kind enough to let us use their space to create and play!

We look forward to hosting even more students next year! You can start logging June 1!
