Hours
The library is open Monday, Thursday and every other Wednesday. We open on Mondays and Thursdays at 7:30 and students are invited to come to the library before school starts on those days.
Volunteer Opportunities
The library space needs constant work, checking in returned books, shelving them, and repairing them. If you are interested in volunteering, please complete your SPS volunteer training, and let me know.
Thank you!
