Learning to read and installing a great love for reading is so important to all of us at HBES. We want our students to be excited to dive deep into a great book and really enjoy a story. Weekly library trips as a class are a fun time to check out some new books to bring home and share with your family. With that being said, we currently have 149 students who have overdue books. We need to get these books back to our library to share with someone new. We are hoping all books will be returned by Friday. We don't like having to send overdue book notices or replacement bills. Please take a few moments to look around your home and in backpacks and even in school desks. We would really appreciate it! Thank you so much.
