Happy Monday, Crocker! Here's what's going on in the library.

Are you looking for a spooky Halloween read? Come check out the display in the library of scary books. There is also a display of books by Joseph Bruchac who writes about the Native American experience. He had a birthday on Friday 10/16.

Library News

Trivia Team needs you. We need students from all grade levels to join our trivia team. Come to the library today at lunch recess to hear more about trivia team.

Reminder: Delivered Items

Good morning,

Please remember our rules regarding delivered articles to school:

Articles delivered to the office by parents are to be picked up by students between classes or at lunchtime. Deliveries should be placed on the blue cart outside the secondary office (P1). The office is not responsible for ensuring delivery or for missing items. The goal is to minimize class interruptions. Musical instruments should be delivered to the Band Room, not the Office. Due to ongoing construction, parents/guardians may temporarily park along the perimeter of the blacktop and walk to the office to deliver an item, or park in front of the portables to place the item on the blue cart. 

Breakfast and lunch are provided free of charge to all students. Food delivery services, like DoorDash or Grubhub, are not allowed on campus. Fast food is also not allowed, as it is unhealthy and creates problems on campus. For safety, please do not send your students to school with hot beverages.

Thank you, Vikings,

Crocker Belonging Carnival

 Our annual Crocker Belonging Carnival is a vibrant and essential event that brings our entire community together. What makes it so special is that it is entirely student-led and student-driven, with students taking the lead on planning, creating, and running the activities. This hands-on approach empowers our students to showcase their creativity and talents while fostering a deep sense of ownership and shared responsibility. The carnival strengthens the bonds that make our school a supportive and welcoming place for everyone. It's a true celebration of community and a shining example of how our students' efforts directly contribute to the positive culture at Crocker.

Event is on 10/30 from 4-6pm on the Crocker blacktop. Check email from Ms. Slater to sign up by 10/9!

This Thursday is Overdue Day! Generally, the first Thursday of the month, is overdue day, a day to check your locker and backpack and at home to make sure you don't have any late library books.
