A huge thanks goes out to our two latest Adopt-a-Row sponsors for our middle school book machine: Dave & Sara Baer of Salem and Emerson Kuttler, 6th grade student. Some of you might remember that Emerson was our very first token recipient for the vending machine. She took it upon herself to take up donations from family and friends to sponsor a row. She truly went above and beyond! Once again, if you would like to sponsor a row or make a donation, please contact Denise Ward in the HS library. You can also purchase a book from our Amazon wish list and have it sent directly to the school. https://a.co/6fu95BR
