[CASL-L] Middle School Libraries - Reopening

[Loretta Sullivan]

I am in the same situation...about 1,000 5th and 6th graders.  I will keep
you posted once I know what our plan is/what we will be permitted to do.
Thanks for all your ideas on what your school is planning for book
distribution.

Respectfully,

Loretta Sullivan
