Banned Books Week

Students at SLHS were invited to submit their favorite quote about censorship via email.  The top 5 quotes selected were shared in the morning announcements at both the high school and middle school during Banned Books Week.  The display above encouraged students at the high school to celebrate their freedom to read!

Author, Renee McCuen Visits SLES

Students in grades 1-3 at Spirit Lake Elementary enjoyed visiting with author Renee McCuen from Worthington, MN about her books Amazing Ants and Slimy Salamanders!  First graders had just completed their study of insects and were able to add a great deal to the discussions.  Check out Renee's website for more information about her next book!  http://reneemccuen.com/
