Time to Celebrate Your Freedom to Read

Free is Always Best!

Thanks to all the students that attended the library's free lunchtime "Get Ready for the PSAT/SAT" seminar. Everyone signed up for an online account to take practice tests. Remember that the PSAT is October 13 so start studying now! Good Luck! If you need help, just talk to your librarians.
