Hi West!  I have missed you!  I made a quick video to remind you how to access our E-Library.  Remember, you access the E-library through Classlink.  You will look for the app that is blue with an orange lightbulb outline.  The app is called Destiny. Watch the video and email me if you have any questions!  I hope everyone is well!  Enjoy a book!  Share this library with your brothers and sisters and even your parents!  They might enjoy a book also!  I hope to see all of you soon!

Mrs. France
