April 4th is School Librarian Appreciation Day! We want to share how much we appreciate our school librarians: Kaila Murphy, Perritt Primary; Charlotte DeWitt, Peake Elementary; Kathy King, Goza Middle School; and Paul Sivils, AHS. They go above and beyond for our students on a daily basis and make the library an inviting place for all.
