Media Center Needs You!

OP Knights Slay Reading! BIG TIME! Mrs. Rearick has a constant flow of books to check back in and reshelve and we could really use your help!

 

The ideal number of volunteers is 2 parents a day — that’s how full the stacks get! If you have any time throughout the week, we’d love to have you devote a small chunk to our media center.
