Out of this World

Hi folks, Jon Wennstrom here! This month we are transforming Buchanan with an outer space theme! Our front lobby now has a lunar rover, rocket ship, and other outer space features. We will have many activities this month for the students including a robotics assembly, sky dome planetarium, Battle of the Books, and even a guest author! Our goal is to make reading fun for students and encourage the love of books. When our students are life-long readers, the sky is the limit!
