These readers discovered PAWS' tiny library today when they came to check out books! They described shelving the tiny books as very "satisfying". PAWS thinks there might be some future librarians in our midst!

Happy Constitution Day & Student Council Election Results!
Today, on Constitution Day — the anniversary of when the U.S. Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787 — we celebrate what it means to take responsibility, have a voice, and make collective decisions together.
In that same spirit of democratic participation, we are proud to announce the winners of our Grades 4 & 5 Student Council Election:
Grade 4
🏅 Lyrical, Jose, Santiago, Easton, Adrian, Sophia, Zhunesia, Ana, Favio
Grade 5
🏅 Yakelin, Shamorie, Luis, Adalynn, Ivanna, Aurora, Zander, Miledy, Liliana, Traelyn
Congratulations to our new student council representatives! These students have shown leadership, initiative, and a dedication to being part of the decision-making process — just as our Founding Fathers did when they came together to build our Constitution.
Thank you to everyone who voted, and to all the candidates for their courage and respect for our school community. Together, we continue to learn what it truly means to be responsible citizens.
