If you have any picture books or early chapter books (3rd-5th grade) that you are willing to part with, the library would take them off your hands. Looking to have a fun Christmas treat that promotes reading over the holidays. Thank you to those who have donated so far!

October's Tiger Way attribute is Integrity. Integrity is doing the right thing, even when it's hard. Nominees for the Integrity award were Jackson, Kaydence, Rio, Savannah, Aiden and Ava. Award recipients were Ava and Jackson. Presenting the award ceremony was Oakley. Our students at New Underwood Elementary are wonderful kids, and we thank their parents for giving us the opportunity to educate them and watch them grow every day. Give yourselves a pat on the back, parents!!

Our freshmen were set to attend the annual Freshman Impact program tomorrow, October 22nd, but due to unforeseen circumstances at the venue, the program unfortunately has been cancelled. We will provide information on a new date if/when that information becomes available. The freshman class will attend school as normal due to this change.

The library is asking for gently used picture books, early chapter books and upper elementary chapter books that you are willing to part with. These books will then be recycled as Christmas gifts before students are sent off to enjoy the holiday break. I am asking in order to keep the magic of Christmas alive, that we keep this slightly on the down low.

If you are willing to donate books, please drop them off at school between 7:30AM-4:00PM.

Also, if you have any old wrapping paper you are willing to donate, I would take that too!!
