Middle SchoolIn light of the uncertainties surrounding the Coronavirus pandemic, we have decided to cancel our volunteer program for the 2020 Summer Reading Program for the safety of our middle school volunteers and staff. We understand this is disappointing – we are disappointed, too – but we hope our middle school friends will still participate in the 2020 Summer Reading Program as readers. We are working hard to revamp our program and we will share more information about it soon! Middle School Summer Reading Volunteer Positions
